Part of doing an engine check before going out is to check the raw water strainer. Because the water is, well, raw. It is seawater that helps to cool the engine and move the exhaust out of the boat. Grass can show up in seawater, so can critters. We opened the strainer, and something popped out. I told Cindy, "Keep track of that spring!" Then the spring kept flopping around. WOW! Truckers would call the procedure a pre-trip. I never caught a fish while pre-tripping a truck.

Extreme weather in Montenegro!! The Bora wind is not uncommon in the Adriatic but this one was the worst in many years with some boats wintering with us in Porto Montenegro seeing 99kts! We recorded 79kts on Intrepid Bear! Whilst out filming for the channel a particularly strong gust hit us, nearly knocking Kate off her feet…our windex recorded it at 75kts! #sailboat #bora #superyacht #boat #windy #extremeweather #montenegro #lifeonaboat #liveaboard #mediterranean
