There comes a time in every cruiser's life where they will eventually face the need to replace their cutlass bearings. We've dropped our rudders, taken the props off (BYE BYE!), and the shafts out. The shafts are really important not to damage, scratch or knick in way away so both shafts have been cradled like precious babies and stored in a safe, secure area on cushioning. Once all of that was done, it was time to get the Cutlass Bearings out. This week's episode on YouTube we are covering: Why cutlass bearings need to be replaced When to replace them HOW to get the cutlass bearing out WITHOUT SWEARING LIKE A SAILOR 😂 The link to this week's episode is in the comments below: • • • #sailing #sailboat #liveabroad #sailboatliving #boatlife #Boating #travellife #travel #worldtravelers #sailinglife #sailors #sailinglovers #sailingyacht #belowdeck #lifeatsea #sailinggirls #sailaway #travelcommunity #traveltips #tinyhome #smallhome #sailingadventure #adventureseeker #adventure #ycass #bucketlisters #adventuretime

Waves keep crashing over the bow, soaking the crew — but the sailors laugh through the spray as they trim the sails and power on! A raw, real sailing moment caught on camera. #SoakedAndSmiling #SailingShorts #OceanAdventure #ExtremeSailing #WaveLife

Cyclone Vaianu is creeping closer and closer and we’re really seeing an increase in wind and rain now. We’re seeing 35-40 knots consistently with reports nearby of gusts up to 60 knots. Our ladder has been blown away but otherwise we are safely strapped down and the boat isn’t going anywhere. The leaking windows are not so fun but thankfully that’s a job on our to do list anyway so we’ll get to those soon! Now we’re in the final countdown to the strongest winds and by the morning we should get a little respite as the eye passes over us. Stay safe out there, everyone. #cyclonevaianu #tropicalcyclone #newzealand #newzealandstorm #cyclonewatch
