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!

Exceptional history – “almost like new” in practice When we took over the boat, it had only run 26 hours, exclusively in freshwater, and had been stored indoors in a hall and professionally maintained from day one. We have now owned it for 4 years, and it currently has approx. 260 hours – and every...
