We’re approaching the Bab el‑Mandeb Strait—one of the most notorious chokepoints in the world and a place sailors don’t take lightly. But just as we prepare to pass through, I’m suddenly below deck battling in the engine room. Instead of calmly approaching the strait, we’re trying to keep the boat running. And as night falls, we learn there is a warship operating in the area that’s aware of our position. Just another day sailing one of the most intense stretches of our voyage.

The pocket puller is one of our most popular accessories for anyone who wants to pull recreational crab pots from our rowing & sailing dinghies! Here's a quick video demonstration of how it works. 1) Insert the pot puller into the oarlock 2) Thread your line over the pulley 3) Pull! You can cleat the line to hold it in place any time you need a break. Easy peasy! We love this because it not only protects the gunwale, but makes pulling easier on your back, too. This is an especially great investment to make if you've got wood trim on your boat, since it keeps the wet line from rubbing against the wood finish. P.S. Sorry no crab in the pot. Crabbing season was closed when we filmed this so we had to keep our bait box empty! ;)
