Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

The crew of the sailboat Uma prepares for a major structural refit by removing the mast, sails, and rigging.0:07 To lighten the vessel and relieve tension on the hull, they first remove the Genoa and mainsail, noting that the mainsail remains in excellent condition after 10,000 miles of use.1:51 After motoring the boat to a shipyard without dock lines or safety gear, they coordinate with a rigger and crane operator to hoist the mast.12:20 Because the backstay fitting is too wide to pass through the solar panel array, they cut the backstay, which they plan to replace during the refit.15:03 Removing the mast allows the hull to relax, specifically helping to resolve a dimple caused by long-term rigging tension.14:35 With the mast removed, the crew plans to begin structural repairs, including bulkhead work and hull lamination.17:31 The vessel will remain a powerboat until the rig is refurbished and reinstalled.14:07
