OCC members, Fred and Sandy onboard their catamaran Dakota Dream, were anchored at Antigua when this happened to their generator. It seems someone forgot to turn off the hot-wired raw water pump for their Northern Lights M673, 6 kw generator when they left the boat for Happy Hour. Upon returning to their boat, they realized the problem and shut down the still running raw water pump, too late. The generator was hydro-locked. This is what happens when an injector is removed to get raw water out of the cylinders. Ouch! Diesel and salt water sprays everywhere!!!

REVERSING INTO A BERTH: Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines Watch as Nick, step by step reverses into a berth. This is video 8 in Nicks step by step singlehanded Docking To/With Lazy Lines =========================== Watch the full training video here - https://youtu.be/-OPs960oR88 =========================== Transcript As we approach the dock here I want to get quite close. Now I'm using forward just to stop us from getting back onto the dock itself. As soon as I've lost my forward reverse momentum I stop. If you can throw the line to him like that over his arm then it's not going to hit him in the face. Oh we'll take it back it's okay. Oh okay okay. So you'll get this as well. There's often you will um either get someone who's going to pass the line back to you or he's just going to hitch it there so that you don't have to deal with it straight away. Now if it was a really windy day or if I was getting blown away right now I would drive my boat against that Stern line or control line. So that I had control and was not drifting closer to the dock. =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?
