Emergency Project! Sea Chest Crisis Threatens Our Offshore Cruise!

Right as we finalize pre-departure checks for our major Sea of Cortez passage on Noeta, our 57 foot Nordhavn, the notoriously problematic sea chest raw water intake throws an unexpected wrench in our plans! This essential boat system runs multiple critical components—so we cannot leave until it is flawless. This episode dives into urgent DIY marine maintenance as we tackle this recurring issue again: performing a deep, messy sea chest cleaning, replacing multiple intake hoses for good, and troubleshooting the lingering air leaks. If you are a liveaboard boater or trawler owner dealing with continuous through-hull and raw water system problems, this video is a must-watch to see how we handle an unexpected, high-stakes boat repair that could halt any offshore cruising trip.
