hello, your video was very interesting for me. I have the same winch but one of the two upper pawls is broken. If i am not wrong there two couples of pawls both different. Any idea where to get those? In the new repair kil lewmar no body can tell me if those are the same size and shape....Thank a lot if yoy have some piece reference number. Thanks thanks!
Shadow Mountain Road is extremely rugged and not good for RVs. The road has gotten much worse since 2016. Best use is for rugged 4x4 camping only or bike in camping. charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/shadow-and-toppings-vault-toilets This is a link to donate for pit toilets and other improvements to Shadow Mountain Camping Area
Lewmar 40 2 speeds of around the same vintage - almost identical except the splined piece that holds those two bottom cogs gets punched DOWN instead of up. (At least it’s does on mine.). The clearance with the spindle bearings is insufficient to punch up so I guess they just flipped it over.
Did you get your money back that you put into it? Most of the time this is not the case. When ever I buy a boat I never overspend, as I know someday I just might have to sell it.
Excellent video. Great tips on RV camping nearby. The HOH, with chess and philosophy. Living the dream with Nietzsche and Kasparov. .I would love to see your channel grow, but such wisdom is above the masses, lol. Thanks for your contribution.
Looking at you while you deal with rainy weather in swimsuits I get sad that I did not change my life early enough...wish you always wind in your sails...
i'm sorry Danni... but Tate is such a stiff........ you.... Tate do you like this, no.....you, tate it says we will love the next 20 miles.... i'd rather be buried in shit... do you really want answers like his? if you were my wife i would love you wanting to talk to me, he is a pile..... maybe i dont understand him.... he is definitely not me
My dive instructor told us a story about how he was free diving real deep real long and he began to blackout. He immediately pulled the ripcord on his buoyancy compensator aka BC. He woke up floating on the surface. As a result he always recommends using a BC at all times when diving free or tank. It looks like the light around you is black and the view gets progressively narrower. Our instructor was a former UDT captain in the 50s and 60s. He could stay down for 5 minutes smoked a pack a day and ran a mile.
I was camping in the Hoh Rain forest in June/July 2016.. a burn ban was in effect.. IN A RAIN FOREST... Then again, in January2015 I was with some motorcycle buds down in the Chihuahuan desert.. promised them it would be warm and certainly never rain there... it didn't, it snowed.......
