No working windlass? You need leather teamsters gloves for all that chain. You bought a shrimp boat sized outboard, but you could probably find a reasonable buyer and trade over to a four cycle air cooled. My Tomking TK 144FC is 23 LBS, and 53 CC's and starts in a blink of an eye. A few simple modifications would make it ideal for trolling. You want flexibility. If you want to cut back on your motoring, buy an extra 12 volt chest freezer, so you're not so rushed, and don't forget to stock those extra limes, matey, in case you get shipwrecked. I see lots of things on your boat channel like no other. A dirty shame you have waterfront screwballs. I bet it's a trend. The motive will emerge. Don't rush it.
@jerrycooke6511

Take the motor out of windlass...its easy to do. Good chance its a Nissan starter motor so in Papeete. Otherwise, its a motor and an alternator shop can rebuild. If it is a control box, theirs not much there either. You can take it apart and see the problem. Most problems with anything on a boat is the connections. If you used welding wires on your windlass, check for any holes or punctures in the insulation.

I did 10 fiji years on my 30 footer at muskett cove. Surfing my brains out at namotu and Wilks. Tavarua was private back then. But namotu was not. I was allowed at tavarua but preferred to empty namotu waves in the 90s. Fiji people are awesome. Indian food is cheap and tasty. You're going to love fiji.

@@garrettsadventure yeah I could imagine you thinking the wind would down your drone? Me too bro. My first drone was the bulky GoPro KARMA which did hit the water and I lost everything. But GoPro ran an investigation into my flight log through Wi-Fi and they deemed it the drones fault and they sent me a brand new one. But I ended up selling it on Facebook marketplace and using some of the money to buy the DJI mini 2. DJI is actually a good drone and reliable, but I stopped flying any drone over water. Anyhow you have a good eye for the camera with music and shots who knows your videos can eventually become a sitcom down the road🙋‍♂️ Anyway i continue to watch anything sailing these days including movies. White squall my favorite teen movie, Master and Commanders and the Bounty with Mel Gibson. Looking forward to your next episode.

Marc, if you can deal with hardwired NMEA-0183 output, Matsutec's HA-102 AIS is only $200. Plus they give you software to change the information (MMSI, ship name, call sign) it squawks, unlike all the American ones where the factory sets it.
