Okay guys, never bored off of always fixing things and doing things
0:05
This block for our fridge came off and I might have to reattach that but
0:11
got a temporary solution until I get time to do that. I know this is good though, but I just pushed it in that corner right there
0:22
Because the whole wall, let me get some light on this situation
0:27
is right now back down there so I have to rebuild all that
0:33
that looks like crap but I've got cork in them holes and I'm trying to keep
0:41
the rest of the fridge from right now and our head in the back room went out
0:45
and you may remember to replace the motor on the vacuum pump
0:50
but it lost all vacuum so to get to this pump it's located right under the bed
0:56
right here it's down there so to remove this pump we've got four screws
1:05
we can only have to take them off one side because they don't
1:10
so I can pull the pump that way I have to loosen
1:14
this fitting back here I've got to take that loose and hopefully it'll just slide off that
1:21
and then disconnect these wires with everything disconnected you're going to have the great smell of raw
1:27
Sewage. Oh, it stinks. So when you finally get that pump out, got to come out to a table you like to eat on. So put in a bag. Make sure you don't spill crap everywhere. And then we'll start taking this apart. First thing I'm going to take off is this bolt. Then I got to remove the motor here. So take this one bolt off right here. Basically, I got a crescent wrench wave
1:57
in there and I've already broke this loose but you just turn it out pretty much up here
2:02
all this on the top of the pump is clean it's down there where it gets nasty. Now I have
2:13
these four bolts in here two up the top two at the bottom you just don't want to
2:17
drop them down into the pump hole down there. So see if I can do that. Okay so now
2:26
Now that I got the pump off, I was pulling out on and it's sucking
2:30
I'm getting grease all over my hands. So I don't need to replace that
2:36
I'm going to put some power to the motor and see if it was spinning, but I don't know what gives
2:44
Okay, so I assumed the this was all working because the engine was, the motor was coming on
2:52
I'm out here and our gearbox is now. It's not turning out. I don't know if you can see that right there
2:58
It looks like it's stripped out. So what I'm going to try to do is cannibalize the other pump because I saved it and
3:06
or pump motor and see if I can fix this. Okay. Okay, I took the old motor apart and these look fine
3:18
I was able to spin this after I got apart. I'm going to see if I can't fix this
3:24
I just have to get these. contactors back in they got the spring and see if we can get power to it Okay so we tore down this motor and it was hung up
3:39
So we actually fixed this one. And then there's a tent chain screw to adjust the gears on it
3:46
And I loosen that up and this thing's going to be a lot quieter than that one was
3:51
This is the original pump that I should have fixed in the first place
3:55
Saved us $250. Okay, the front pumps working
4:08
And it will pressure all the way up and shut off. Yeah, pressure again
4:19
And this is the mess I make when doing the project in the boat
4:23
go that there I've got all that open right there I've got that open right there
4:32
I've got that no plumbing and then out here I got wires and the table's greasy
4:40
so I got scrub the table so while I was doing projects my wife noticed the boat was sinking
4:51
By the time my guy out here and got the digney down, it was pretty much just the nose up
4:57
But we are on a rescue mission, and yeah, this guy had a long swim ahead of him if we weren't sitting out here
5:21
Water, water. Water, water. Okay, just got the guy to shore and he's over there
6:06
He's now going to try to rescue his boat, so he's going to try to drag it with his sailboat
6:14
and see if it can't pull it, yeah, going fast enough to get the hole out of the wire
6:23
It's pulling upside down. See if they can write that ship
6:33
Looks like they're getting it up right that ship
6:46
Looks like they're getting it up right. So... Now they're gonna try and bail out the water as their motor in it
6:59
They can get the rail above the water line. Yeah Hey guys so this is something joy of a boat
7:14
I have to clean the sugar scoop probably once a week. If I get more weight on the front, I'll get this sugar scoop more out of the water
7:23
I just need more change, but it is an ongoing process with barcles, especially out here in the ICW in this very brackish water
7:32
water, it just gets nasty. Okay, guys, so got the sugar soup a little cleaned up, and
7:39
we're going to be heading just right over there on the bridge closer to where we get water
7:46
So, uh, yeah, I don't have to spend hours getting water. Maybe
7:54
maybe less than hours, hopefully. So that's the game plan. And, uh, yeah, we're just going to
8:01
drop anchor here soon. So she was struggling with the anchor. It was binding up on the bottom
8:08
frazzled her a bit. Well, but I always forget to check the anchor locker to see if it's like
8:14
binding up in there. But I had already cleared it once and so I didn't think it was going to bind
8:19
anymore. So yeah, that was her wrapping. Yeah, well we had over a hundred foot of
8:26
anchor chain out, so. Yeah. I had to keep stopping and waiting because
8:31
it was getting too far out and I didn't want to get run on with the windless
8:37
She does not stress the windlass. She does not want us. I don't know why you would
8:42
That's a lot of money. And she doesn't want us manually pulling out the anchor
8:47
Oh. I know it didn't lean a time after that. There's no way I'm doing that
8:54
I don't, I'm not that big. Oh, look at them muscles. Not strong enough for that
9:01
So we made it to our anchorage and didn't go very far, but right over there, see over there
9:08
you can get water pretty easy. So that's a whole reason we moved this to here
9:15
We're on our last tank. We've got about a hundred foot chain, ten foot of wire
9:21
Our bow is probably about three, four foot off the wire. That gives us about seven to one scope, so we should be good for, I think the highest winds we're
9:30
I'm gonna see here is about 20 knots and yeah she got everything settled in she turned off everything
9:39
Did you close that Seacock? No. I can't lift the bed. That's my job
9:45
So yeah, we gotta get everything tucked down here and then probably go get wire today or tomorrow
9:53
We have 50 gallons left so yeah. Tomorrow. Tomorrow. Okay, so now on the front of the boat
10:06
dogs keep me company, and I'm going to change out, you see this roller right here
10:11
It's not rolling. So I'm going to change that out, and it looks like it's going to rain on me
10:16
while I'm out here. So let me see if I can get this done quickly. To remove this, I got a crescent ridge
10:22
and I'm just going to tick off these outer bolts right here. Okay, I got it replaced
10:29
to get rained on. So if you look in here, you see I moved the rubber to the top. I had this other roller I took out of here
10:38
Now I put it right there and I can just drop my chain down in and yeah my the rubber rollers are a little too big to put them on both together
10:49
so I had to look for another solution for that but yeah the anchor should run more
10:56
smoothly. So we're going grocery shopping first we got to hit the hardware store
11:01
we're pulling in here it's a dog's bait house it's a free spot where you can
11:08
tie up your dinghy and walk around maybe get lift. Okay, we're here at the dinghy dock
11:19
Now we gotta figure out where we can put trash. Welcome from Doc's bar and there's a west marine
11:26
Babe, you want to go in West Marine? No. No. It's be fun
11:31
They have all kinds of stuff I may need. Um, so we have to take a look back
11:37
Okay guys we just finished grocery shopping got our lift coming Look at all that and we stopped at the home depot before this because I got some plumbing issues
11:48
But we got to get back to the boat the dog is probably missing us
11:52
He's probably having a fit but we just went to public's right down from Doc's uh bait house
12:02
Goal our groceries in the dinghy wife says it's hot we gotta get to the boat so I'm gonna get in there now
12:09
okay so we're back with groceries all over the place and now I have to install a new one of these
12:20
uh Pex connector's a pretty easy install maybe I can show you how to do that
12:26
well I did show you how to do that so I'm just going to install it just gonna go in my sink that's leaking
12:31
now left off that light the whole time it's leaking so I'm just going to
12:36
replace it. I have the picks right there and we should be good
12:44
Now my wife has got the challenge of trying to figure out where all the groceries go
12:53
She's got him in the bedroom. Well, we never used that. She's got him in the salon
13:03
She's stacking them everywhere. my big pantry at home wow our old home
13:11
I could just show everything in that so I got that plumbing installed and
13:17
it is dry down there guys so good deal never bored on boat
