DUBLA DEFECTARE A MOTORULUI ÎN FURTUNEA DE FORȚĂ VENITĂ [Ep. 7]
![DUBLA DEFECTARE A MOTORULUI ÎN FURTUNEA DE FORȚĂ VENITĂ [Ep. 7]](https://sailingtv.ro/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1695814411_maxresdefault.jpg)
Just a suggestion, your title should say real emergency at sea or something similar just cause non boating people wouldn't understand the dangers of loosing both engines in a gale. and I think many more thousands would love to watch this video. Anyway amazing job, you did real well!!! both od you
You've got a bacterial growth in the fuel. MUST purge the entire system ! This is critical for safety ! When you get the fuel polished, there are additives you can use to keep the growth out. Glad you are both safe ! KEEP YOUR HARNESS hooked in short ! The nylon melted onto the shaft….should be removed at the earliest.
You guys are doing well. I am proud of you. Fuel problems are one of the most common issues with new boats. The tanks are usually full of gunk when you buy the boat. Best thing is to empty and clean the tank, polish the fuel and put it back in the tank (or discard it in some responsible fashion). Sometimes you have to cut access plates or whatever. Often the motor runs fine in calm water and you don't discover the problem until the first time you get into rough weather and the gunk gets churned up by the boat's motion. Usually the gunk just clogs the filter. You must have a lot more gunk, and the lines are clogged. You may be able to somehow pump all the fuel out through a filter into jerry cans, then clean the tanks and lines (maybe replace the lines). Then you can put the fuel back into the tank. Inspection plates on tanks are nice so you can periodically check the fuel for gunk. How did the gunk get in there? Via various mechanisms that people still argue about, water usually finds its way into the fuel tank. The interface between water and fuel can support growth of some type of fungus (often called algae, but it isn't). This eventually leads to huge sheets and filaments of biological material laying all over your tank. It is not a bad idea to put some kind of biocide into the fuel every time you fuel up. But start by cleaning the tanks and lines thoroughly. Good job dealing with the problem, not panicking and using a sound thought process. Of course it would have been much better to thoroughly check the fuel system before departing. But knowledge comes from experience and experience comes from making mistakes. Great job guys! Make sure you keep an eye on the fuel in the tank going forward. Make sure you both know how to replace a fuel filter and bleed the line from filter to injector. You may have to change filters under duress in the future so it would be better if you both know how to do it cold.
Oh, also, it is getting to be fall and you guys are pretty far north. Pay good attention to the weather. The north part of the pacific can get pretty nasty at times. I almost mentioned this last week but I felt like it might be condescending. If you are already well aware of this I apologize for stating the obvious.
photogs rules 1 never leave your bag alone 2 always wear a neckstrap every second your using it
I think I told you we sailed the intercoastal waterway from Juneau and had a great time fishing for salmon with Herring using gang line. I didn't tell you that I ran upon an uncharted reef, threw the Cunnins diesel into reverse, sent both my video and film camera below deck, and destroyed them both. I replaced the cameras, and the boat and the four of us were saved. So, the moral of the story is screw the cameras! This was a great video with great dramatic music. Just keep sailing, learning, and having fun.
Love you guys and your footage! Keep going strong. Kiwi support from down under.
When it rains it pours!
Your a real sailor now!!!
You kids were amazingly calm during that very stressful period! Keeping that way helped you get back to safe harbor.
Great job guys.
Hi guys, wow what a lot of drama it was. Good to see your work as a team and not screaming and yelling at each other. That is so wonderful when you’re under pressure sometimes the Worst come out in us but praise God you guys are okay. Keep up the good work. Love your videos Cliff from Logan city Queensland Australia from the big island 🇦🇺🏝️🧑🏾🦽🐨🦘🌏🐬
I was thinking that you guys were the most smiley Sailing Tubers around, but then this episode was rough and the smiles disappeared for a while. Glad you made it to safety.
My first thought for the fuel problem is diesel bug, but I hope not, it can be a flamin' mongrel to get rid of.
im 5 minutes into the video. that boat isnt squared away to go out. that fishing rod swinging with a lure on it, was just waiting to get someones flesh and create a potential tricky injury which would have turned your attention from sailing the boat. your deck and cabin are clutered with stuff which isnt tied down creating yet more problems and losses as it may splah onto the water, creating yet more trip hazards, etc. this isnt like living in a house even if your boat is a catamaran. Maydays and Pan Pans arent to be issued lightly. you are going to put other ppl life at stake to come get you. remember that. you had sea room (from what i could gather) you had steerage because you could sail the boat and you werent in a life or death situation boat wise, injury wise. strongly recommend you enroll in some appropriate sailing tickets to Yachtmaster Offshore level. being at sea is never a joke no matter how fair the weather is.
Testing week, but looks like u nailed it. Great video again see u next week!!!
You have got a fuel bug problem, you will probably need to replace all your fuel lines and clean out the tanks , you really need to get back to a marina. Good Luck
Its all part of the adventure, and I'm sure we'll all help you cover the cost of that camera, so don't worry, keep going you two, stay positive 🙏
I think your fuel tank is going to need to be drained and cleaned. 3:14
Great team work under pressure! I would have cried losing the camera too 😭😭😭
Thanks!
Experience – Knowledge gained immediately after you needed it.
Click bait big time. Suspenseful music added for drama when they bought an old boat and obviously didn't clean the fuel tanks. Did cosmetic repairs but looks like no basic mechanical repairs. I wanted to like this channel but with manufactured drama and ratcheting that up with dramatic drones, I'm out.
Super impressed with how calm you both were in working out a solution under extreme circumstances. You live to fight another day. So sorry about your camera.
Wauw guys, good reaction! You both kept your head straight 👍
There are many things I’ve seen in your videos that kinda call out “ 🧐”
But that’s how you educate yourselves ( hopefully with nothing too serious as to ‘discoveries’
And lots of fun along the way
Sent a small contribution your way to help with the camera 🎥
Enjoying your work. Thanks!
in the future if you dont have a fuel/oil filter wrench and you really need it off you can always stab it with a screw driver to get extra leverage
Oh my goodness! What a harrowing journey! My stomach was upside down. And when you lost your camera, omg, the look on your face broke my heart. I'm so glad you 2 are such a great team and got yourselves to safety. Bravo and great work!
Nice job, well controlled, no panic! Keep going, ….but fix the engine problems first.😅
Fuel valve shut after filter change
Typically you get a bunch of crap on the bottom of your tanks after a while… The rough weather/waves stirs it all up and it gets sucked into your fuel filters and chokes out your engines. If it's bad enough, it clocks the pickup tubes too. When you get to port, take out the sending units from the tanks and suck out all the fuel/gunk. You can filter the fuel and re-use it. Sucks, but this is basic maintenance that went unattended… Really ought to check your fuel tanks and suck the crap off the bottom once a year.
Nice job, and nice to know that you can be self sufficient out there!
I was on the edge of my seat watching this episode. Great job Handling the tense moments. I liked that you worked as a teem and did not blame one another for the mistakes made. Great TEEMWORK!! I really am enjoying watching your content. Such tense moments With the motors and the sheet in the prop and you handled it like professionals. Well done, but then crying over a camera! What the: Oh I guess you are a human That's what makes your channel so wonderful to watch. The Highs and the dreaded lows of Sailing life. Great job I sent you 200 for your new camera. Thank you keep up the great content.
I remember seeing something on sailing sophisticated lady's channel about algae growing in the fuel tank, it could also be gunk build up from the tank sitting for a long time if the boat sat for a while. But i would def look into the algae thing too because if it is the problem will just come back.
Way to stay calm and be a team. This was great for us all to see how to overcome a serious issue! Well done!
Bless her heart!!
Well done guys, it's all about the challenges. If you're feeling very emotional perhaps the pink stick test should be on the agenda.
Well, I think it's called the "learning curve…." You've gone up another notch along that curve! I'd say you stepped up to the plate. You had a problem, you handled it, you didn't murder each other. Really not a bad day at the office, all things considered.
Well done…both sea and video skills! Talk about calm under pressure. Looking forward to your next adventures from a fellow VRC member. (Just added to your camcorder fundraising.)
Donation from my Singapore PayPal doesn't work.. Anyways keep it up, great stories
Unfortunately can't attach screenshot either..
Wow guys you were amazing. Darcy you are a real man bro. The way you treated Yvette during all of that was a way a person should be treated and did it in style.
Yvette your human attributes shone. It's just a camera but I can tell how important this journey is to you and how you want to share it with the rest of us.
I can tell you I have had very similar circumstances happen but not in gale force winds like that. You both were amazing to watch. Keeping a cool head in those circumstances is hard for even the most seasoned of sailors. You two were pros completely.
Fast becoming one of my favourite sailing channels.
Sorry I don't have spare funds to help you out with your camera but know I am very proud of you both.
Arohanui ❤
Ive come to anticipate that when things start to go bad in sailing its more than one thing that goes wrong im always thinking about escape routes what will i do if that happens etc i generally always keep some mainsail up right to anchor, good work under some pretty intense conditions guys
Good job guys, looks like Microbiological growth (H-Resinae), which is unfortunately normal after a long period of time. It's fixable with filtering, dewatering and/or biocide, not expensive.
All of it unfortunately but fortunately makes you a better sailor… Storms usually kick up debris in your tank s…. You're probably going to find a lot of algae in your tank… Sucks when you go out of the way to buy something nice and then something happens….
It's a good failsafe to have 2 filters setup side by side with 2 selector taps so if you block a filter you can switch to the other one while changing the blocked one
Great video. How you kept smiling is beyond me. Good teamwork and crisis management. Just subscribed. Looking forward to seeing your videos. Well done!
Admirable what you have accomplished already there goes my little contribution to your camera
My dear. Health is all that matters. You will get a new camera in the near future, no need to be sad. Keep on the good work!
You need to learn a sheet bend! Fuel flow problems are 99% of all diesel engine issues. Did you remember to plumb the fuel return into the Jerry can as well? I learned that one the hard way…
Glamorous cruising life eh! 😉 You both did well.
Well done people – crisis averted. May I suggest you inspect the inside of your fuel tank and of course all the lines, there could be sludge blocking the lines and filters, also diesel bug can be a problem. I'm sure you will have it sorted quick.
I'm sure someone has told you it is time to "polish" your fuel. Pump out all your fuel into 50 gallon drums, inspect your fuel tanks for gunk (growth), clean it out if you find it, polish the fuel with a double filter system, then put it back in your tanks. I would also replace all of your fuel lines and fittings. then you know when the last time it was done, since you did it! You are doing an amazing job, even with all the challenges, and you have our hearts with you.
