SDA108 Is Your Elbow Exhausted? Volvo MD2030 Exhaust Elbow Repair

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we sail to Big Majors Cay where we have some anchoring issues between Big and Little Majors Cays. We need to wait for slack tide because we can’t get through the cut on only one engine. A nurse shark shows me around the anchorage and it’s time to fix that pesky port engine
