60. Filling Holes in Our Boat & Changing the Cutlass Bearing | Learning the Lines - DIY Sailing

In this vlog we replace our cutlass bearing in a very unconventional way. We really wish we could have done it the "right" way but previous galvanic corrosion of the strut really made us feel as though we shouldn't remove the old bearing jacket for fear of damaging what little strut was still there. We also continued prepping the bottom for new thru-hulls and bottom paint. We filled holes we don't need anymore, because less holes below the waterline is always a good thing. We can't wait to paint the bottom, because that will mark the last paint job on the exterior that we need to do. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not-A-Broker Consulting: https://www.patreon.com/notabrokerconsulting Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/learningthelines/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/learningthelines/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Learning the Lines is a channel about us, an average couple in our 20's, with big dreams to be sailing the world by the time we're in our 30's. We're not afraid to jump into anything, put in the work, and learn as we go. For this reason our channel is very DIY focused, with the goal to show anyone watching that a lot is possible if you're not afraid to make some mistakes along the way.
