Had to sprint back to Tahiti to get our hydraulics fixed before leaving for the dangerous middle. Got really lucky ish and the day we had to head back there was zero wind BUT long 12’ rolling seas so it was a quick but uncomfortable trip. In Tahiti was able to get the boom off the boat, the hydraulic furler off the mast, and the hoses out and swapped in 24hrs. Biggest repair I have had to do on Azurite and it went decently well
