We swapped our composite propeller for a bronze 3 blade prop given to us by a fellow cruiser. And we show you how to remove and install a propeller on a sailboat. Thanks Lee for the prop and Scott for the tool rem over.
The upgrades keep going as our AGM batteries died. So we decided to upgrade to Lithium batteries and took the DIY route with EVE cells. We spent less than US$1000 for a total of 280Ah.
Our depth sounder also stopped working so we decided to replace it with the Hawkeye 2BX, a cheap alternative to the fancier boat designs.
Filmed in January 2021.
