EXPLOSION ON BOARD OUR SAILBOAT 😱 [Ep.33] BOAT LIFE SCARIEST MOMENT 🧯 Sailing SV CUBA
Descrição
Our BIGGEST SCARE living on a boat yet: Explosions on our boat??!(...and the captains’ suffering continues 😱😅)
After battling strong winds in Crete we sail to Pylos and manage to hide in an abandoned marina. Here we also meet Kostas again. A friend we made in the short time, we visited Pylos last summer. He has been so kind to find a safe space for us and SV CUBA. So we celebrate our reunion with some Greek specialities!
But during our stay we have no time to spare and soon enough we upgrade our sailing equipment. Our head sail has a rip that needs fixing, and more boat projects await us. Enrique has a brilliant idea to engineer a solution so we can edit our videos at night. Our boat battery bank is not the best and our laptop battery is even worse. At night, therefore, we have no option to work on our sailing episodes.
With a bit of ingenuity, however, we are now able to even use our old laptop at night! A massive boat upgrade for us haha!
The celebration that we managed to improve our boatlife does not last too long though. A huge bang from beneath the sofa makes us jump and hide for cover!
Is that smoke shooting out from all corners below us??
Are we having a fire on our boat?
What sailboat disaster are we experiencing here?!
I am ready to get the fire extinguisher and fire blanket! Enrique is dazed and confused as he hit his head while fleeing the disaster zone.
Luckily this is not the end of our sailing adventures or our journey around the world (and the captain is not injured).
However, soon we will have to leave our safe harbour once again, as a new sailing destination lies on the horizon. In the midst of the winter, we will sail from Greece to North Africa.
While this might be an easy 5-day sail in the summer, we now have to dodge a huge weather system and we need to make a massive sailing detour. Join us next time, as we get ready for a 11-days non-stop sail to Tunisia through the Messina Strait, where our engine fails while we outrun high winds and big waves.

Hey guys nice video I would like to tell you you made some mistakes you have to have protection on your batteries you need to buy a good battery charging unit to charge all your batteries all the different types you have lithium nickel Cadian and other types don't buy cheap crap you could have sunk in your boat or burnt your boat to a crisp caught it on fire seriously never go with small wiring always go with bigger wiring want to be careful lithium ion batteries can explode and literally put a hole in your boat other types of rechargeable batteries will just burn and burn your boat down

That would definitely get your attention. Glad it was somewhat minor. That's the problem with complicated systems on a sailboat more things to go wrong. I've always kept Plumbing and electrical systems to Absolute minimum on the sailboats I have had over the years. Less Creature Comforts but much less aggravation in the long run. Just found your Channel couple weeks ago. Happy to be a new subscriber best of luck to you.🙂

An explosion requires combustion! Total Click Bait! Drama! No!
