Changing the shaft seal while the boat is in the water
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 9 ธ.ค. 2011
we had major issues going from forward to reverse. The sea was filled with flowering seaweed that got into the prop and the only way to get it out was to go hard in reverse. GAs lever just stuck. After much screwing around I got it moving again and never found the cause.
What were the engine issues ? Curious now 😅
gas lever refused to move from forward to reverse. Sea was filled with flowering seaweed that got into the prop and cause major shaking. After a lot of screwing around I finally got it to work, but am still looking for the cause
With wind.
I have done it twice in the water. My cutlass bearing sits in the hull in the tube sticking out just in the front of the prop. In this case I wrap bicycle hose around the shaft and then up onto the tube ending with a knot. Not a single drop of water comes in.
Yes but we have an open tube as a thruhull. Little different
@@sailing-distant-seas Yes, I know but some one else might have use of the idea of bicycle hose. It's actually wise to have on board as it is useful for sealing leaks on tubes.
Yeah. Don’t know what we would have done if it leaked. And yes Vinni is worth all of it
Nice to have such a lovely mate. She makes it all worth while. Great job replacing the paking. Very satisfying to get it the first time...with no leaks !
Ser lækkert ud, vi hygger os med blæst og regn ❤😂
Cool! Who are they? Just other cruisers?
hi bob Just some local expats that paly once in a while. but they are really good
Beautiful! You deserve a little luxury now and then!!!
What if the wind changes direction? Do you need to correct it?
If the wind changes direction, the vane will continue to keep the same angle to the wind, meaning the boat will make a new course - keeping the same angle to the wind as the vane was adjusted for. SO the short answer is "yes" you will need to adjust the vane to keep the same course
@@sailing-distant-seas Thanks for the explanation, i realized a bit late the fact that sails won't turn on their own to correct the wind change. But how some people sail solo for days , i mean what if the wind direction changes when they are sleeping?
@@jeb123 if the wind changes while they sleep then they will wake up some nautical miles off course. That is generally not an issue if you ate on a long passage a long passage will take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks. A day more or less is not important.
@@sailing-distant-seas thanks again sir
@@jeb123 if it intetests you you can read about our travels ( we have been at sea for 6 years) at svcapri.com
Death Valley , men ikke kun der, næsten alle jeres videoer i de sidste 5 år mangler en død kat, for lydens skyld , men ellers godt ,fortsat god tur og godt helbred
hej sven. ja vi ved godt at vinden er et konstant problem - vi har forsøgt med vat og lignende over den lille mikrofon, men det er ikke godt.
My lift up is almost the same as yours. However the oar/paddle has no section in front of the stem. My aeries will not work with the wind aft of 90 degrees. & is very poor at holding a course unless upwind. Your steering oar seems to show a certain amount of the blade in front of the stem. Is that correct & if so roughly what % is in front? I am making a new oar & am wondering if this will solve the issue. My model is a Franklin one
Not sure what you mean. Our vane blade is adjustable via a screw at the base allowing us to move the blade from verticle to horizontal. Moving the blade like that increases/decreases the sensitivity of system. Our vane steers well with the wind aft the beam. Best at up to 175 degrees but will steer even with wind direct from aft
@@sailing-distant-seas Sorry for the confusion. I am talking about the part that goes in the water NOT the vane. I have experimented with several types of vane as well & now have what I think is the best. However The boat still does not hold its course The reaction of the aeries is far too slow. The boat rounds up long before the aeries reacts. So I want to improve the response time.
@@grahamlongley8298 move the wand blade further to verticle. Tighten up on the lines from the aries to you helm. Do you have some kind of superstructure on the aft end of the boat that disturbs the wind flow?
@@sailing-distant-seas Tried that & I certainly have nothing obstructing the flow to the vane. The boat is a hanse 311 & i do not even have spray dodgers or a spray hood. . I have tried all angles of the vane. I have found a stif vane best to avoid flex & the current one is partialy reinforced with GRP for the bottom 1/3 It is light & thin above this . I have even installed an adjustable weight sytem to the vanes to see if vane balance helps. I have done everything I can to reduce line friction to the tiller & I am aware of the effect of moving the tiller along the chain when hooking on. I think that you ( probably you) & I discussed this at the London boat show years ago. I even tried fins on the back of the vane, I have a streamer & I have tried "parachutes" on wire frames on the trailing edge of the vane as well to get the vane to respond better.
@@grahamlongley8298 well i don’t know and am running outt of ideas. You might contact aries in holland and see if he can help
Thanks. One question, how does the apparent wind not effect the system. Maybe I’m overthinking this but seems as you start moving forward, it would add new wind force dynamics?
Apparent wind does affect it. The system steers to apparent wind. Which does not matter since you simply adjust it
Lake is too low. I was there at 14 years old. Climate change sucks.
Nice boat, Carsten. Glad we caught up at Wayne's in New Jersey, old friend. Diggin the videos...
Hi guys I'm looking for cheoy Lee ketch 45 to 53 project is okay to if you know any please let me know thanks 👍🙏
I don't know if it is still therer - there was a 54 foot Choy Lee without masts lying in Taiohae Bay on Nuku Hiva last year - you might contact Nuku Hiva Yacht Services and see if it is still there - probably get it for free
Seeing this was like meeting an old friend.....I've logged thousands of miles with an Aries and found it to be a loyal crew who does not need sleep or food. If you want to know what it is like WITHOUT one, I had a windvane break a few days north of Hawaii when on passage to Seattle, in 1976, doublehanded. So with only two on board, it was watch and watch for the next two weeks. One week we were in 40kts wind, in the Westerlies, long period swells that were big enough the bottom of the sails luffed in the troughs. The first day, we were averaging about 8.5kts, but my nerve failed at sundown and we handed the mizzen, so missed out on that 200 mile day by about 10 miles. I won't say were were tired, but on one of my watches a piper showed up in the cockpit and was taking requests. As it happened, a 12-meter America's Cup boat left Hawaii the same time as we did and only beat us to Seattle by half a day, 18.5 days total. The boat was a Herreshoff Marco Polo....55', three masts, 10' beam. "Valkyrie" (I'd sure like to know where she is now!)
Wowwww
Du har da med garanti ingen højdeskræk Carsten 😁 godt gået ...
tak - masten bliver din bedste ven når man er deroppe - man klammere sig til den
Ummm where is the link for the test ;-)
working on getting one ready :-)
Thanks Carsten.. simply and clearly explained .. FINALLY ,I get it!! Lol ..I am a Sailor in training.. Maggie
Det var en smuk oplevelse - ikke vejret, hvalerne 😉
So the windvane helps the wheel, and there for the main rudder to steer the boat. At same time the windvane contributes very little to steer the boat directly. Am I right? Thank you.
This type of windvane is called a "servo-pendulum" It does not steer the boat directly but uses the boats own rudder to steeer
Can’t hear it
hi Weli - just replayed it and can hear it fine - maybe yhour volume is turned down?
@@sailing-distant-seas maybe
Cool!! So would you feel comfortable sleeping for an hour on auto pilot. If there's a big change in wind direction and you've got to change your course or sails, does the vane signal that?? Anyway, thanks for the vid. Glad to see your 30-year-old vane still works fine.
The vane only steers a course at the same angle to the wind - if the wind angle changes, the vane alters course to follow the wind. You should never leave your boat without someone keeping watch - no matter what kind of autopilot you use.
@@sailing-distant-seas What about when you're sailing by yourself?
@@STSGuitar16 Single handing is a different discipline. Here you need to get some sleep, so you will leave the boat to sail itself - but that can (will) be dangerous. I've done it, but don't like it (there really should always be someone on watch) and certainly don't recommend ti to anyone - certainly not when sailing passages. We've met a fair number of single-handers over the years, but I still done think it is a safe way to sail
lovely day on the water
That was a great explanation and video. Thank you!
Superb video, thank you
Carsten, we wondered were you had been, the Mods on CF :-)
Elsker jeres jordomsejling👍 Har lige læst jeres første bog færdig super god, nu venter jeg bare på nr. to🤗. Forsat god rejse.
hej palle tak for rosen - bog to udkommer til efteråret
Difficult to video to make when one is tired and wet, thanks, for the realistic video report., In my case on our return trip from New Caledonia to Sydney, we were trying to close the NSW coast of Australia, heading into westerly 30 knot winds on the nose. Since the crew was tired, I set the boat up to forereach at 1 to 2 knots, so I could send the crew me included to sleep mid-ocean. 8 hours later everyone one was refreshed the boat handled being on its own forereaching all this time, sometimes you just need to trust your boat as in our case it saved the crew to carry on fresh and alert.. May I ask what weather routing software provider inputs did you rely on if any?
hi john, we use either grib files via sailmail or else predict wind. we do not use paid weather routers or gurus - we seem to able to read the gribs and forecast as well as they do
Herlig entusiasme. Jeg forstår stadig ikke rigtig, hvordan så lille en flade kan styre så stor en båd. :)
Hay guys, Im in New Zealand now!
Thx for sharing. I was clueless as to how those worked.. Very good detailed explanation and description !
Det er super godt gået, gid jeg var med
tak for rosen - det er også et dejlgt sted

Hei, Veldig fin targabøyle dere har på båten, du har vel ikke tilfeldigvis en tegning med mål? God seilas videre :-)
Hvordan klarer Aries vindroret de store skæve søer bagfra? :)
Hvorfor fungerede den ikke over Atlanten? :)
Det lykkes os aldrig at få den justeret korrekt, samt vi havde faktisk ingen vind på vej over atlanten. Aries skal have cirka 7-8 knob vind for at fun gere - langt det meste af tiden over atlanten havde vi meget mindre end det. Husk når vinden kommer agtenfra så er den vind vindroret "føler" den faktiske vinde minus din fart fremad, altså den ser den tilsyneladende vind som godt kan være under under 8 knob hvis du sejler fremad med f.eks. 6 knob (dvs 12-13 knob "true wind")
Carsten Breuning Tusind tak for svaret! Og fortsat god tur, hvis i stadig er ude i verden! PS. Hvor mange fod er jeres båd og hvad de vægten af den med last? Sidder og researcher mulighederne for vindror til vores 48 fods Jeanneau Trinidad.. Tror vi er lidt i den tunge ende 😬
hej aske, Aries er et servo-pendulum vindror så i princippet kan jers båd være lige så stor som i ønsker - det bruger jeres båds ror til at styre med. Vi har set aries på 55 fods både så jeres 48 fod burde kunne uden problemer. vores båd er 40 fod og vejer 13 metriske tons fuld lastet. du kan læse mere om os på vores hjemmeside www.sycapri.com
Kære Casten og Vinni hvor ser det dog helt vidundrligt ud. Fortsat dejlig dejlig tur :-)
Hej Carsten og Vinni. Tak for god underholdning. Hvis jeg må komme med en kommentar så vil jeg anbefale jer at nøjes med at tale dansk, det med at skifte mellem dansk og engelsk fungere ikke så godt. Der er jo også massere af Jordomsejler på engelsk, så en på kun dansk ville være fedt. Fortsat god tur😀
hej kenneth, tak for rosen. Vi er begyndt at tale engelsk og dansk på videoerne da vi har to hjemmesider - den ene på dansk og den anden på engelsk - det blev simpelthen for meget arbejde at lave/redigere videoerne på to sprog - derfor indtales de nu på både dansk og engelsk
Hej. Vilken bundmaling er det i bruger? Den ser jo rigtig fin ud efter 1 1/2 år!
