Ep 136 Windlass Parts and Fischer Panda Generator Repair

Back to our windlass for routine maintenance and our Fischer Panda 6Kva Generator, which might be a bit more than routine. The windlass had a known crack in what is called the “lower clutch cone”, which was an easy enough repair. The footage shown is more about how these units work and what to look for during teardown. I also add a few of my thoughts on anchoring and using the windlass, for what it’s worth. The generator was a bigger deal. For literally months we kept having an intermittent fault in our genset start circuit. We went down several rabbit holes trying to track it down, and watching that is useful for the person trying to diagnose this, or a similar, problem. sailing yacht talisman, sailing, sailing youtube, boating, top sailing, oyster yachts, oyster sailboats, oyster 485, offshore, bluewater, blue water, sailing vlog, sailing vblog, sailing channels, sailing videos, cruising, monohull, BVI, BVI chartering, BEYC, fischer panda 6kva generator, repairs, issues, starter
