Seacocks are bronze valves in a boat and are used as a safety measure for closing off holes below the water line and keeping water out of the boat for either maintenance or emergencies. We have 4 total on Seawind, and one of them has been giving us trouble for the past couple of years. I cleaned and greased this particular seacock, and ever since, it’s seeped a bit of water into the boat. The only way I could stop the leak was to tighten the valve so much that I couldn’t turn the handle! Live right now for our patrons AD FREE is EP. 55 of Sailing Seawind!

Bei der Familienflottille im August 2022 durch das Ionische Meer kam von Jörg aus Berlin der Vorschlag: Deine Flottillen sind so toll, ich möchte gerne meine Begeisterung teilen. Jörg räumt auch gleich mit einem Vorurteil auf: Nein, wir segeln nicht wie eine Entenfamilie hintereinander her! Nein! Flottillensegeln gibt allen die nötige Sicherheit und Insidertipps einfach viel mehr zu erleben! https://korfu-segeln.de/flottille/
