So we are glad we anchored our little sailboat outside of Cocoa Village. The town is awesome, with a 48 hour free dock that lets sailors stretch their legs. The park has great enmities, stores with the sailboat parts you need, and great dinning. 00:00 Intro 00:51 Danielle First Dinghy Ride 02:52 The Docks In Cocoa Village 03:31 Ryan's Restaurant, The Best Pizza 05:14 Brief Look At Lee Wenner Park 06:33 Dolphins Play With Our Dinghy 07:38 Test Starter On Yanmar Engine 12:29 How To Tighten A Lewmar Hatch 13:21 Fix Oil Leak On Yanmar Crack Case Pan 14:39 How To Drain Water Out Of Diesel With Racor Water Separator 16:31 Back To Fixing Oil Leak On Yanmar Diesel Engine 19:05 What Danielle Likes And Dislikes About Living On A Sailboat š¢ Our Website: https://www.chrisdoeswhat.com/ š¢ See Our Recipes: https://www.dininginwithdanielle.com Tools I Love:

Okay guys, so in this video we try out Ryan's Pizza here in Cocoa Village
0:08
Really good pizza. Oh They got 3,000 reviews and they're good. So check them out
0:14
They're they're extra small is like the extra large of any other pizza joint you go to
0:22
I work on fixing oil leaks and Testing starters from our last adventure because
0:30
yeah, it took us a while to get started getting here and then we had to
0:37
Know it was just that was a mess. I wish I had on film I didn't but I did test all all our starters and I know exactly what's wrong with them and
0:48
Other odds then so y'all stay tuned and we'll get into this
0:55
My wife's ready to go. This is our first time. We're taking the stingy out. She's gonna sit there I guess
1:05
Let me see if I can get on the stingy It looks like it's straight down
1:55
We're doing great. Going over Cocoa, gonna find this little story. It's not too much, I don't want to be away from the boat too long
2:01
I get worried about it. They're gonna float away, sing, got my dog on it too so
2:05
Just a little bit of time off the boat for a minute. I like it
2:09
I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it
2:17
I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it
2:25
I like it. It's a sad sight. It's a sad sight. The sailboat's keeled over
2:33
It's really shallow here. It's really shallow here. So So Is it just keeled over or is it sunk in
2:43
Is it just keeled over or is it sunk in? It's actually grounded
2:47
It's actually grounded. It's actually grounded. Okay. Left the dock. Our dinghy's over there. Yeah
2:59
My wife, it's her first time My wife, it's her first time
3:03
Catching a cleat on the dock. Catching a cleat on the dock
3:07
Pretty awesome. Didn't want to film it. Didn't want to film it
3:13
Didn't want to film it. Didn't want to film it. Didn't want to film it
3:19
This is Coco Village. This is Coco Village. The boat is way over there
3:25
The boat is way over there. Right at the corner of the dock
3:29
There's a sunken boat. There's a sunken boat. Nice little community. This is where we ate
3:37
This is where we ate fried green tomatoes fried green tomatoes at that one restaurant
3:45
at that one restaurant. We've been on the boat for 5 days
3:49
We've been on the boat for 5 days. I have not gotten off the boat in 5 days
3:53
I have not gotten off the boat in 5 days. My legs are very wobbly
3:57
It's a pizza and pub. Coco Village, Florida. It's a pizza and pub. Coco Village, Florida
4:01
Let's go see how the food is. Well, we don't have a drone
4:05
Our boat is right there. And this is our flyover. And this is our flyover
4:11
It's like It's like Jamaica. Reminds me of Jamaica. Dirty bananas. Dirty bananas
4:19
And I got the Florida lager. Because I ain't a girl. Because I ain't a girl
4:25
Look at that pizza guys. I'm going to be bloated after this
4:29
And this is the small. And this is the small. It's actually got real bacon on it
4:35
You know, every time you try to order You know, every time you try to order
4:39
real bacon on those delivery places It's always canned. This is bacon
4:45
And guys, if you come here, this is the small. And guys, if you come here, this is the small
4:49
This is like the biggest pizza you can order through delivery. So Ryan's pizza
4:55
was the bomb. Very good. We got dinner for tonight too. It was really big
5:01
16 inches. This is their small. So now we're going to go venture Lee Weiner Park. Weiner
5:09
Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner. Weiner
5:39
Weiner Park. No, this is the Indian River. I'm sorry, not the Indian Ocean. The Indian River
5:45
So, and there's a lot of stuff to do. We saw manatees when we were coming down here
5:51
But, uh, you can just look over this boardwalk and check out all the views
5:59
And then you have this park right here. It looks beautiful. So, I'm not going to film the fountain, but
6:07
there's kids over there playing in it. So if you have kids, great
6:11
place to, I guess, let them get in some water. And it's free
6:15
It is getting warm. And then they have public restrooms and facilities like that, so
6:21
not a bad place to get looked at by moms. Not a bad place to
6:27
drop an anchor and stay for a bit. Okay, we're going. I don't want, don't get me
6:33
Baby's getting braver. Sitting up on the side now. I don't want to get my feet stuck
6:43
Got some dolphins playing out here. Right in my backyard
6:55
Is that a baby? Could be. Aw, look at him. Oh
7:09
Holy moly! My mouth is over here! Oh, wow, yeah
7:21
Yeah. He's trying to play with us. He's just trying to play with us
7:35
There's that dog. But, right before we pulled out of the marina
7:41
or we tried to pull out, it wouldn't start. So, I replaced the starter twice on this
7:47
And I don't know if it was starter or wiring, so while I'm not in such a stressful
7:53
situation, I'm going to test out these starters. Make sure they're not bad. Okay, so to remove
7:59
one of these starters, it's pretty easy. You got a bolt up here
8:03
a bolt up here, a bolt down here, and then you have
8:07
your power. I went ahead and already turned off the power for the battery
8:11
I'm going to have to vacuum this up. And remember
8:21
where all these wires go. And then you disconnect this. This is for our ignition
8:29
And then that was a 13. And the other bolts are a 17
8:49
I guess I shouldn't have pulled it all the way out. There we go
9:03
Take this guy out down here. This starter right here is brand new
9:17
This one, it slightly looks older. And that there is why I like studs better
9:53
Studs work a lot easier. But I'm guessing on a boat they would rust
10:07
Now we're ready to goose up. Go the right direction. Yeah. There we go
10:29
Now we're ready to stick all these wires on. This one goes back here
10:33
And all these, I'll put the power on first. I like to put my biggest wire on first
10:45
And then all these other little connections. And then
10:55
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:03
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:11
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:19
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:27
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:35
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And then
11:43
this one goes on. And then this one goes on. And we'll see if that starts
11:51
Okay, crank it up. Water's coming out
12:01
Dog's nervous. Let's shut it down. And it's not running
12:11
It's a good thing. So replacing a solenoid on a starter is pretty easy
12:15
I'm just going to order a new solenoid, get that in there
12:19
And then I'll have two spare starters. One brand new. Well, I used it to come here. And
12:27
yeah, I'll be right. So, it's getting a little warm on this boat. About 80
12:33
degrees out there. And this back hatch right here, it won't stay open
12:39
So, to fix this, it's not that big of a deal. But to tighten this
12:45
screw, let me turn it around here. There's a screw right up here
12:51
I don't want to strip it out with a screwdriver. So, luckily I have an impact
12:57
Let's impact that one and see if we can get some air flow up here
13:01
So, I have my impact on low power. And we'll just give it
13:07
a few revs on it. There, that should do it. It moved a little bit
13:17
Now let's push this open. Oh, yeah. Now we have breezing, natural light. So
13:25
that is a good thing. And, yeah. Now let's go work on some other things. I noticed
13:33
as we were moving the boat. OK, coming down here, this engine
13:37
performed very well. But if you notice down there in the bottom, we have
13:41
a little Earl coming out. Now I think this Earl is coming from
13:47
the bottom of the pan. Right down over here. And, uh, if I get my hand
13:57
I can see some splatter and stuff. But, uh, it's not that much
14:05
But I do have to rectify this issue if we want to go on
14:09
long motoring journeys. Hopefully we can sail. So this side over here, this is the
14:17
starboard side of the engine. Looks to be fairly clean. So I
14:23
imagine it's coming off our port side. And I'm going to see if I can tighten
14:29
down the bolts. Clean the oil of the bridge. Clean the oil out
14:35
of the bilge. And get this thing operating. Well that looks fun
14:41
After our trip we had, uh, that much water in our tank
14:45
So I gotta get that water out. And get me a cup. Okay
14:53
So to drain this water out, you should come here and twist this
15:03
It would be nice if this probably put a hose on it
15:09
There we go. Now it's turning. And we can drain off some of that water
15:15
You see it slowly going down. And we can drain off some of that water
15:19
And we can drain off some of that water. And we can drain off some of that water
15:23
And we can drain off some of that water. And we can drain off some of that water
15:27
And we can drain off some of that water. And we can drain off some of that water
15:31
And we can drain off some of that water. And we can drain off some of that water
15:35
And we can drain off some of that water. It would probably be easier
15:39
to do this with the engine running. Because we have the pressure of the fuel pump
15:49
And there we go. And it looks red. And then you have to
15:57
dispose of this. I'm going to put this in my oil container
16:03
Because it's kind of yucky. If you can see down there. It's not the cleanest
16:11
looking shit. So I'm going to take this engine cover off. And it's got these little pins right here
16:17
Hopefully you can see that. Through the dirt. And I'm going to
16:25
pop them off. And that will clean up our dog's hair too
16:29
She's a hairy mess. So these pins come off really easy. And then you can just slide these off
16:37
On both sides. And the engine cover is ready to come off
16:43
The hard part may be aligning them back where they were. So we have our RoboVac going while I'm doing this
16:49
Because it's just nasty in here. But I'm going to remove this cover
16:53
So I can finish cleaning up that oil. Wow! This is awkward
17:01
Now you can clearly see I've got a lot of that oil up. But
17:07
I can hear a lot more scrubbing now. Oh that thing got stuck on that
17:13
There it goes. But it leaves up in the eye here. I'm going to have to hand scrub that
17:21
But other than that. And you can see all the way into our bedroom there
17:25
So that looks a good bit better. I'll be able to see where the
17:31
air flow is dripping. Now I've got to get tools and tighten this
17:35
And now I'm going to after I get it tightened I'm going to clean that side of the engine
17:39
And this grease is about to go away. Because it's going to be bumpy
17:43
So the size wrench we're going to have to use is a 13
17:47
So I have to I can't use my impact in here. So I'm going to have to wrench it
17:53
Let's see if I can get under here. This is show one
17:57
This is the easiest one to get to. But also it seems to have
18:01
oil on it. Oh that's loose
18:17
I don't want to break any bolts. Because I'm notorious for doing that
18:23
But let me get the rest of these tightened. And next time
18:29
we take it out we'll see if it leaks. So I tightened up a few and
18:35
I'm going to work on it some more. This would be a project without some
18:39
blood sweat and tears. I got half the bolts tightened. Okay I got all the way back to about
18:45
right there tightened. Excuse my blood. Let's get this all cleaned up
18:51
But I'm going to see if I can't come from the back side here
18:57
and get the rest. Maybe I can. It's still tight. If you can see in there it's
19:05
So we've been on the hook for like seven days. And uh
19:13
yeah. Today is very rocky and windy. Yes it is. And we aren't making much power
19:19
so we're going to cook this on the stove top. And I got this interesting whatever
19:25
I haven't had this in seven years. I probably shouldn't be eating it. I'm probably going to get
19:33
inflammation or something. But so far what do you like about living on the hook
19:41
Uh not paying arena costs. And the view? Yeah. Sometimes it gets a little tiring
19:51
being swung around all the time. She saw dolphins? Yeah. And. If I never see
19:57
them on the boat he always says they're there and I'm like I don't see them
20:01
She saw them in the dinghy so. And then uh what do you
20:05
most dislike about living on the hook? Living on a boat? You're always moving
20:13
I feel like I can't get my legs stable. How about the uh the power boats
20:21
that go past here? The big ones? Yeah. I have a name for them. I'm not going to say it
20:27
They're not very nice. They they I it's like a purpose thing. They see sailboats
20:35
and they're just going to be like let's rock them. Look at me
20:39
We've only been rocked once and it was really bad. It was horrible
20:43
But we see these other. I thought a boat was going to flip over. But we see some of these
20:47
other boats in the anchorage and it looks like their mast is
20:51
it just really. It was getting on my my hair is all messy
20:55
Or is it just always messy? No. But yeah we're gonna we're gonna be moving from here in
21:01
about uh a little bit because uh maybe find something a little bit more protected
21:07
Something with a little bit more beach. I saw this one called Boy Scout
21:13
Island. Maybe have some beach time. So Hopefully we don't have to swap out for bugs
21:19
Because there's not really any bugs over here. No. But we're gonna. She's gonna get this
21:27
ramen. Well I could actually make something else to eat. I have food in there. I
21:33
just. He's working on the engine and I'm just like Might as well just do something really quick
21:39
I'm gonna get back to tightening bolts and bleeding. Okay. Okay. So I've
21:47
got this all cleaned back up. And what we're gonna do is
21:53
put the water out available. And we're just gonna see if it leaks again
21:59
Tighten up them bolts. But I'll clean it better when we haul out. We're gonna be hauling out here in
22:07
a few weeks. And I've only got 100 gallons of water left so I don't want
22:13
to waste it on this. We don't have a water mecker. Which
22:17
is on the schedule. But until then we're just going to. I'll get grease on my arm sheet
22:23
But it's on the schedule. But we'll get there. So yeah. I'm gonna call this done until
22:31
it's not. So hopefully you enjoyed this adventure. And yeah. It was
22:37
you know. You learned something or you just got entertained. Probably didn't learn anything. But
22:45
yeah. I got entertained. Yeah. Also check out this girl's recipes. She does them right now. It's
22:55
boat work's been getting in the way. It's been like once a month
22:59
So yeah. We'll pick that up. We have still a lot of boat tasks to do
23:05
And a lot more in the future. Cause we're gonna be hauling out in about a month. But
23:11
yeah. That's gonna be fun. And if you liked this video. Go ahead and give it a like
