We did a major refit on our sailboat, and one of the key jobs was replacing the cutlass bearings — the parts that support the propeller shafts and keep vibrations low when the props spin. To do this, we hauled the boat out of the water, dropped the rudders, pulled the shafts, and used a heat gun to loosen the glue holding the old bearings in place. Once they slid out, we pressed in brand-new bearings, reinstalled everything, and got ready to launch again! It’s one of those behind-the-scenes jobs that makes a huge difference in how smooth and reliable the boat feels underway. Follow along for more sailboat refit projects, cruising life, and ocean adventures!

We are a couple, from 'Sailing Supernova', and have just finished the refit of our old catamaran and set sail to circumnavigate the world, stopping at remote destinations and beautiful locations along the way. We got into sailing simply because we wanted to travel the world, be digital nomads, bring our 'tiny home' with us and be able to cross continents. #sailing #catamaran #boatlife #boatrestoration
