previously on Moneypenny after all that
hard work we finally got round to
splashy and then a good chunk of that
hard work was undone by a spring storm
the pop my Fender okay welcome to the
engine room so spring maintenance is
actually really relatively simple we put
a big new oil filter er right there and
then we put on you Phil fuel filter on
as well but that's around the other side
we can't really see it we also change
the filter in the in the rake or so we
have double filtration and we cleaned
out the fresh water filter because she's
real water cooled then the only other
thing to check is and where is it now
they're down there a little bronze pad
right there behind that is the is the
impeller which pumps in the Royal water
for the cooling and then we also check
the oil in the sale drive which goes
down the dipstick right there and she
says she's very good and after we did
let she started right up
alright so the first thing we want to do
before we go anywhere is to check the
oil so you just clean the inner dipstick
and then get oops and then get a reading
on how oil level we're pretty good very
little though but we're not bad so the
last bit of spring maintenance that we
did was to change out the fuel gauge
right there nice and shiny and new and
we also put a new sender from the from
the fuel tank down to to the gauge
because before last year this wasn't
this wasn't working very well so now we
turn the fuel gauge on we can see that
the gauge actually works and tells us
how much field is in the tank which is
wonderful anything left to do now is see
if she starts
Rosa little bit and then make sure that
she's pumping so we checked our oil we
don't all the spring maintenance you're
ready to actually finally car stop with
a Caesar one last thing we like to do is
a radio check to make sure all our
systems and working a lot of people do
radio checks on Coast Guard channels we
try to avoid that so we're actually just
going to call up Brent on a boat in the
adjacent other yes yes yes same vessel
money Radio check over fences jumping
ran off with somebody magnificent our
projectiles going to thousands life
thank you have a good afternoon we'll
see you down there when we get done with
the liver and Tyler all right Becky but
if it's tammie play to go back to me
thanks to the emergency channels the
radio works we'll get to go since we
launched we've been taking advantage of
the free snip that we were given good
opportunity to plug the boat in a charge
up the batteries but now it was time to
unplug untie the lines we finally get
started with your 2016 sailing season
and it's about time
you
once we got back to the harbor I went
off in penny to try and find our new
mooring location I had to put the bridle
on the cam before we could go entire
just blown like stink that day so I
didn't actually film putting penny back
on the camp I kind of needed all my
hands to make sure that I got back in
one piece the rest assured she's tied up
safe and sound next time on Moneypenny
we invite the Coast Guard out to come
and make sure that we're up to snuff
with all the safety regulations let me
sit down for a nice chat to learn a
little bit more about
