Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
Chris and Jessica Hanna return to Blue Pearl at San Felipe Fonartua Marina following Hurricane Hilary to find the vessel covered in heavy sand deposits.10:21 The storm-driven winds, reaching 60 mph, funneled sand through a gap between fuel tanks and buildings, coating the deck, cockpit, and interior hatches.9:48 The crew spends four days performing a massive cleanup, using shovels and brooms to clear the accumulation.11:17 The sand caused significant cosmetic damage, including deep abrasion to the hull’s gelcoat on the starboard side where fenders rubbed against the grit.2:05 Additionally, the storm destroyed the boat's dock lines; 29 lines were used to secure the vessel, and many were either severed or severely chafed beyond repair.4:52 The marina’s shore power voltage remains too high for the boat's equipment, forcing the crew to rely on a temperamental generator for limited air conditioning in 94-degree heat.3:09 The crew notes that using canvas covers on cleats, similar to those seen on local Marine Rescue boats, may provide better chafe protection for future storm events.5:54
