previously on the lazy gecko what are you working on there captain we're dealing with a hurricane
so this hurricane here is going to come over cuba and then shoot up the coast it's hard

them what the thought was done you talking about re drop the yeti on your other top no
terry gave her a compression for her ankle i'm not really sure what that does no it's not for ankle
it's for the whole foot so it's for when i broke my foot oh so terry gave me a compression sock
um and we're icing it now although the ice makes it feel worse no yeah right now yeah um icing it
and then we're gonna see hopefully tomorrow i wake up and it doesn't hurt as much if it does
i'm gonna assume i broke my toe i can't wiggle it like i wiggle my other one yeah that's what i said

it hurts my toenail and the point of my i thought she broke her chin join the um i've
lost toenails club yeah well like oh yeah yeah come on come look just don't touch it please
it's hard having like a five-year-old because they're so like
mobile and all over the place like playing so i'm constantly worried about it right here
okay i need you to measure me when i have this out this is for waist an output that i want do
me like pinch a little bit make it is it for a dress let me just make it a little tighter
yeah like that yeah 27. okay and now my chest can go tighter
so i'm between a small and my chest is a medium not balanced appropriately right
well i found the tape measure while we were looking for the ink so i was like
measure me up i need to order this outfit for my pajamas
we're getting awfully close those are all my rag towels from the mold clean up
flowing 12 or 13 knots we're not sailing because all we're doing is
turning left and right on the icw so we're just going through this little section that
looks like really far out there but we're not but you just lay there all you want dear all right
we're working our way to the marina we booked for the hurricane so tonight we're about halfway
there tomorrow we'll have we'll probably be there tomorrow late in the day we are going to new bern
so the captain jeremiah just told me we'll be about three or four hours tomorrow a three or
four hour trip until we get to new bern our marino um oh we might get wait it's flying there's a boat
flying and we're gonna stay at that marina for five nights well the hurricane passes so we're
pulling into this anchorage it's actually pretty really pretty i'm enjoying it should be a nice
flat anchorage and we'll have cell service tonight yay yeah last night we didn't have cell service so
even though like you should be i should be used to it because of the caribbean and stuff i'm used
to like not having service all the time turn it i can't get onto like google but i remember you told
reese that he could have ipad time and he was like but there's no service i know i'm like well watch
something you downloaded yeah and then i was the same i went to go watch something i'm like darn it
so newborn is really pretty too i think you guys will really like it it's a cute little town with
lots of shops and restaurants so i think you guys will like it yeah that's perfect right up my alley
jeremiah's gonna get off the boat and start running this week so running a cute little
town you'll get some running time in yes um and i'm going to work on de-molding the boat before
i start working out again i don't know all right it's all right though what should i have right
now six okay a little more shallow five five okay thank you you can tell me both of them if you want
five five six five six okay that's good all right we're gonna turn into it five one good
times what you're doing is you're letting me know how deep it is so i don't go too far eight good
okay mom are you ready okay all right mom you wanna go ahead and drop
this is a pretty slow moving storm so we were able to enjoy lovely anchorages along the way
just like this one located in north carolina have you ever been on a boat something on the engine
caught fire yeah i guess we won't be leaving early without a radar well hopefully i'll get it going
this is the radar hub this is the old one a couple weeks ago like the the the two units
stopped talking to each other but everything was working they just weren't talking so i let it go
a little bit longer and today it cramped itself so what i'm gonna do is replace this unit with this
one and what i'm doing right now is i'm trying to make sure the internal settings are right matching
what they were here i'm just going to mirror what he had and then hopefully we'll be good to go
what is that thing called this is just um like a router this is what uh all the components
like radar and all that stuff hook into and they all talked and lets everything talk
together how much was it for that i've expensive i think it was like a thousand bucks for this thing
the problem is everything's so small i can't freaking read it i gotta put glasses on
aren't you wearing glasses no i'm wearing contacts yeah your contacts aren't as good
as your glasses no i need reading glasses oh boy time keeps on ticking reading glasses so i just
need to take this power cord and plug it in and that's going to go right there but what you do
is it takes stuff apart you always take pictures man um yeah all four together just like that see
so i'm going to do the same thing but on the different ports and put this cover plate on
yeah what happens is it just gives a radar disconnection alarm and last time it was the
router failing the all that stuff goes that router and the router talks to everything else and if it
disconnects at the router like hey i lost the radar there's no there is no radar because it's
connected straight to the router and also the two chart plotters should talk to each other
and it goes through there too i don't know if i need to mess with more settings or what but we're
going to start it up see if it's recognizing it okay they're up now before there was no radar the
system knows if there's a radar installed so when that happened it said radar disconnection alarm
and then i just restarted everything and it just went straight to two chart plotters
uh now there's a radar so that's good so we'll try to transmit the radar and run it
radar's running that's good and you see both of them are working together there now they're
talking again yeah but they still don't look i don't know if they're connected let's see
see they're still not talking to each other see that
well actually hold on that one went to two nautical miles but it just didn't move
let's see here hold on let's do this let's turn that off let's mess with it 0.75 let's see
point seven five point seven five and still not it's not changing oh there we go it's not
no it's not really changing yeah so it's not really talking
but i think that might be that might be something else a different setting but
the radar is back and that's not a huge deal that they're not talking because it just
basically it's like when i turn this that one moves too but you can see i can take them both
bring them down to what i want the same scope and get what i need right now cool yeah back up yep
now i'm just going to put it all back together make it look pretty and then maybe troubleshoot
this weird sound we're getting from the uh from the windlass i googled it and people said
a lot of people took it apart had to clean out the motor that carbon dust or whatever what did
you google our winless and slow it slow down and a lot of people like the brushes needed to replace
these ones they're supposed to get serviced once a year it happens to people between the five
and ten year mark yeah um and like the brushes either need to be replaced or the motor needs
to be cleaned out a lot of people cleaned up the motor themselves with using like a dinghy pump
for air to shoot air oiled they've also oiled it and it fixed it one of the things about this um
situation that i don't like is the windlass is glued in so the windlass sits in there there's
this this this board that the windlass is like under part of it is under and there's two screws
to that board out you see the two screws but the board has been glued down by the factory yeah
so i was going to work on the windlass before and i couldn't because it's been glued down let's go
take a look at it we'll let this run okay i'm going to walk really slow you got the peanuts
got the peanuts good stuff dude come on up here gimpy oh come on i'm serious it's not that bad
i know do you think it's as bad as she's making it or do you think she's doing that for extra kisses
i promise i'm not you know me yeah i know i don't ever complain i'm still not complaining i'm just
drinking vodka brittany hurt her foot i dropped a yeti on my foot yeah and the idea i get a cup
like this not a yeti actually dropped a thick mug yeti mug on my foot when britney was anchoring
this more on what she was weighing anchor this morning get it
um when she was wearing anchor this morning i heard a weird noise like i was like is that
one that's making a weird noise she didn't say anything and then when she was putting the anchor
down i was like is that witness making a weird noise because i heard it again she said yeah it
was going really fast and then all of a sudden it started going slow and sounding like that
which it never sounded like that before it was more like robust right i can take this off easy
all this stuff comes up and then to get this thing off which is what i need to get this off
unfortunately this has come off which these two screws for the factory glued this in
like hard cord loaded in so i'm gonna so i didn't go any further because it it only i was just
gonna be cleaning it now and these obviously need to be serviced so we'll have to do that
but one thing you'll learn about the antares is it doesn't squeak
and all that stuff but it's because they glued everything together yeah
it's great it's not gonna come apart on you but uh it's gonna cause more work when you're
you know doing your thing but another thing to go along with the windlass situation is some
posts don't even have a windlass so if we need to pull the anchor we can pull the freaking anchor
you'll be pulling the anchor yeah you'll be back there i'll be like go forward and i'll be like
oh my gosh you're gonna hurt yourself oh honey this is steel the anchor spots are few and far
between and we tried to get in here and we were inching along but once we got through the little
yeah we got down to less than a foot the entrance was less than a foot deep for us at this time low
tide um but under the keel but um you know we had to take it because our radar wasn't working
you didn't know if that would fix it yeah you know there weren't other spots until going
into the night yeah all right well i'm gonna go back to work put this in there together okay
i went ahead and put everything back together and put the displays back so we got the radar working
as it should and then also looks like now i got them where they're linking up
and they'll see that followed so if i were to zoom in here 2.5 this also follow
so we're in a very tight little area back here so you're gonna get a lot of radar hits but boom
that's exactly what we wanted so to shut down you just hold one of these
little buttons down power off network and then it will shut down
and just time to be able to enjoy the rest of this sunset it's a cool little spot man we're out back
in like middle of nowhere and the only boat back here you can't tell how tight it is on video but
we have about 35 feet of chain and that will put us in a circle between both shores and that's that
just in time too because tomorrow's forecast is more fog coming soon on the lazy geckos
oh that's cool yeah they must already know who we are because we didn't tell them we
were lazy at the same time no it doesn't say it on the thing either and now i try to catch it
the broadcast of everybody the coast guard's recording you
everything's so are you nervous angel oak tree
