1. NOT use grease it will stick and jon up with salty atmosphere and cause problems. Clean and possibly replaic the balls in the bearing. Love your vids as always.

2. 8:15 was that a Red Rider reference?
   LOL…women…futanari Kika…that's just wrong,..in a cave no less.

3. modern swivels use delrin balls and good swivels use torlon balls never steel balls and no grease . Grease holds the dirt and grimme and causes seizing

4. Bravo on the furler repair. Tedious work! Proud of myself for making it through the whole spelunking part. I have fairly severe claustrophobia. I don't do caves, and I usually don't watch other people doing caves. But I made it through this with no panic attack! You guys being the ones doing it helped. 🙂

5. The biggest fallacy in modern ship propulsion going on DECADES now is the need for a stayed mast. Once you get rid of needing the ability to transport said vessel out of water upon land is so apparent as to be ridiculously sane/laughably NOT insane. Using the "magnus effect" with modern materials of course aluminum the need for even a sail be done away with. Modern hull designs are so efficient and mass produced and HUGE by volume clearing the mast out offers obvious advantages let alone eliminating cabling/etc as shown here.

6. Yep using grease is the trick

7. You two always surprise me. The two of you doing surgery on UMA (likely able to rewire DATA…NG.) and then going spelunking or as I call it upside down rock climbing…in the dark. Good on ya both. Great video as usual. By the way, your trip to the Arctic Circle and beyond has now got the tropical sailors wanting to do the same. It's going to be a bit of a surprise to most of them. HAHA. Keep up the great work you two, it's inspirational for other sea folk and most of us land lubbers.

8. "It's all ball bearings these days."

   Great episode. Safe travels! xo

9. Wow- much like working on WW2 era optical instruments! Lots of bearings! Then going inside The Rock!

10. Hahaha. Two favorite channels (youngbarnacles being the other) released videos on the same day of replacing the bearings headsails furlers. It must be bearing failure season. Which reminds me: all the bearings in our top two track cars for the mainsail fell out and I really need to find replacements. Defies me was to how that can even happen…. I'm sure the part autopsy will be interesting

11. If your greasing doesn't work check for halyard wrap. From your previous videos it looks like this is your problem. Occasionally jamming but freeing up with a bit of working back and fourth. If it is halyard wrap just fit a halyard deflector and check the forestay for damage. But that will fix it.

12. Very Cool

13. I love that shot of the cloud & mountain top

14. Who was closest to guessing how far you went in? Great vid guys.

15. I've enjoyed some spelunking in my day…. 🌞🌴⛵️

16. Dan's self awareness when he says 250-300 meters and he's right is totally like him. You're supposed to say it was miles! 🤣

17. Wow that's something else, never knew there's such great caves inside the Gibraltar Peñón ! Saludos from Ottawa, cheers.

18. You’re not that far away from Atticus! Hope to see an another “battle of the channels”.

19. Get back on the ocean!

20. A youngish couple on SEA BIRD are renovating an old sailing boat They bought for one euro .. BUT they don,t appear to have a clue .

21. Slightly worn bearings and new bearings are not a good mix.

22. epic cave tour.

23. So if tt is not smooth rotation , clean the grease of , inspect for pitting on balls and races , and check to make have enough balls and the tension is not to loose or to tight . Use thicker grease or put in the refrigerator for thicker viscosity to hold the balls better as you reassemble .

24. how many years old? !?! Did you say 'four years old' as though it should be replaced. Certainly I must heard you, I am hearing impaired.

25. Great guide

26. Your lucky you have a beautiful assistant!

27. Wait…so how far did you all go in the cave?

28. Any comment about the unrest in Haiti and the US forcing troops upon the Haitian people??????????????????????????

29. Good Morning Dan & Kika I think I past you on my walk in Port Andratx Mallorca this morning you were in company and I didn’t want to disturb but welcome and I hope you have a lovely time here it’s my little piece of paradise 😎 D

30. Is your furler a Hood Seafurl 800SL?

31. at 5:24 is that a 'Lenticular cloud' or a 'Pouring cloud' or maybe a different type? It looks.. Amazing!

32. Excellent job …💯❤

33. didnt even know furlex were invented that fucking long ago

34. Can you drill a small hole and add a zert so you can squirt grease into the bearings?

35. Go Kika go, crank up that sail. America's cup here she comes!

36. Dan, great surgery! I hate ball bearings, they roll everywhere! The cave tour was cool! Great job everyone!

37. Why invest the time trying to fix it, when eventually you will be replacing it with something new?

38. Very creative trick with that tinfoil!

39. Next time, before you put in new grease make sure you clean it first with a decreaser for instance brake cleaner. This will get all the dirt out. Then put in a minimal amount of grease. If you put in to much dirt will stick to it.

40. What do u think of your winch handles?
