Did you guys add the railing to your boat?
Bahia de Los Muertos! A great anchorage….
The beauty of a double-ended boat!
The blessing is that you are in a Westsail juggernaut….There is nothing like the power of a Westsail full keel hull smashing through whatever the sea decides to throw at you… I’m sure you were much more comfortable, by the end of that passage, in your security once your faith in the boat’s performance increased….
Hey whistle Dick it's nice to know you got new parts but it would be even nicer to know what parts they are and where you got them come on man😮
Hello. What is the size of the headlight? Is it 5.75 or 6 inches? Thanks.
This looks amazing! Just got the bug and can't get enough of these vids!
Looks cool how hot does it get? 1:21
Measure the fuel oil consumption rate.
Its arround 5.5 hpg
Looks great….which front fork upgrade did you use? Thx
They came from trail buddy
Also check out on the internet for parts T-BOLT. MOTORCYCLE PARTS
Here for the same pump but different application caterpillar 416 (w/ 4.236)
Love the seat !!! Can you tell more about what you did for that ? Just the cover or foam as well ? Where did you get it ? Also , my front forks are way STIFF , how are the new ones ? Thanks !!
Yah i got the seat cover from ebay its a pretty good one. And i just reshaped the existing foam with first a knife then a 60 grit orbital sander. And yes the forks are way better than stock they are alot softer and safer came with bigger brakes too. I still put lighter fork oil in them too. But the rear shocks were as important as the shock way cheaper too. The stock rear shocks felt like a hard tail Harley. Bounce you right off the bike. But the new ones feel great.
@@adventuresofthequedaghmerc809I run 10 weight in my 42 millimeter front forks for my champion ice bear. You need to put an oil cooler on it.on your motor
Looking super nice bro!!
Those bikes are so fun I always wished I had one when I was a kid that one looks amazing good job
I spend a whole bunch of money on new banjo bolts, soft steel crush washers and a new line only to find out that my pump is also leaking it from the back seal. It just leaks in a manner that make it look like its the line #1 that's leaking at the banjo. Mine is on Massey 50C and I literally have no room to work. I am trying my best to not take the pump off completely. How did you take all the injector lines off? there is one in the back of the pump that's impossible to get to :(.
Sorry for the delayed response but If I remember correctly either I used Shorty wrenches or I removed the line off the injector and pull the line with the pump, but to be honest hard to remember
Sorry to see your journey come to an end, just when I discovered your channel.
Thanks for following us!
Hope all is good nice to see you guys on your trip
Bahahaha!!! “Pro tip: Drink your coffee front to back!” “Wait, did this happen to you...?” “*smiles* ...yeah” Hilarious!
Yes it did.
Sailed on a Freedom 45 once with 35 knots of wind. It works like a charm. For the price it's offert it's a good backup autopilot. I liked it very much and will install one when I'll get my own sailboat.
Thanks for the confirmation! We ended up in 30+ knots of wind for days and it did fine when we used it.
So sorry to see the journey end. Best of what life has to offer to you on the next path. I believe, The sea knows, and offered a farewell to you for all your hard work and dedication. An offering, by way of its children ( dolphins) Best Regards. The Anastasis.
Now I have ELO stuck in my head.. :)
They are the best!

Thanks! It’s been fun upgrading and restoring the boat. What a small world
@@adventuresofthequedaghmerc809 no joke! Yeah when he first got her, wow... she needed some work. And then what you guys have done is another giant leap! Amazing!
Tagged you in a photo or 2 on IG from some of our trips aboard.
Awesome! I’ll go check it out. The owner after you, Kenny, told us some of the stuff you’re dad did. We kept a lot of it, like the wood on the ceiling.
@@adventuresofthequedaghmerc809 Kenny!!! Omg! That boy was crazy! Hahaha Yeah I noticed the computer desk was the same and the ceiling. Looooove what you did with the galley. So much better.

Nice to see a westsail channel. If you're looking for ways to improve your channel, I'd consider trying an external microphone. Some of the audio was a bit muffled.
Thanks for the tip!
Nicest layout for a 43 that I've seen. Great job.
Thanks! We really like the layout as well, it’s suits our family and sailing needs.
Ok, im so impressed with you guys you determination technical skill and overall greatness. Just magnificent!
