Launch Day - Almost Sunk the Boat - Previous Owners Cut Seawater Foot Pump Through Hull Hose - Fixed

We put our sailing yacht in the water for the first time! As the boat was getting lowered into the water we climbed down into the cabin to find water coming in. Quickly was shut the through hull and realized the through hull hose going to the sea water foot pump had been cut by the previous owners, us and the surveyor had both missed this. Thankfully we shut the value off in time before any damage was cause and was able to wipe the water up with just a towel. A little longer and it could have been disastrous and sunk the boat. Later Austin fixes it and reconnects the foot pump. We start pulling everything out and organizing/cleaning the boat. Austin hoists Bayly up the mast to hang the flags. Outboard engine breaks in the middle of the night when we are dingying to sore and we have to row to town and fix it. We have seen lots of fish and massive sea turtles the size of a full grown seal, will post videos of them soon, one pops up right beside our dingy. Also ur first time anchoring and docking the yacht. Didn't drag anchor over night so the was good! Thru Hull is a term used to describe a fitting that is attached through the Hull of a Boat. A thru Hull fitting requires a hole to be cut/drilled in the boats Hull for the fitting to pass through. Some examples of thru Hull attachments are a sea-cock and hose and thru Hull transducers. Thru hulls can be used to expel waste water, such as from a sink, to let sea water in, such as for engine cooling or to allow placement of sensors such as depth gauges.
