Shark yanks fish underwater from sailboat line
Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
A Schenker watermaker aboard the 38-foot sailing vessel Khalifa loses prime after an air pocket enters the freshwater accumulator, and Adriano walks through the full restart procedure in Prickly Bay, Grenada.9:05 He checks the 5-micron and carbon filters, confirms the seawater inlet valve and saltwater drain valve are open, verifies the solenoid-controlled freshwater valve, then runs the flush cycle — holding the flush button for five seconds until the panel beeps twice — before closing the depressurization valve and bringing the unit to operating pressure between 6.5 and 7.5 bar.9:37 The unit stabilizes at roughly 6 to 6.8 bar and produces approximately 30 liters per hour, confirmed by catching output in a cup directly from the product line.18:56 Adriano also explains the boat's solar power chain: two panels producing 1,200 watts total feed two MPPT controllers, which step voltage down to 12V to charge a five-battery bank that powers the Schenker.23:42 He discloses the unit cost 45,000 BRL plus 7,300 BRL in interstate tax, totaling over 54,000 BRL per unit.22:13 The crew also sails from Prickly Bay around Grenada's north side to St. George's, and a shark takes a fish off their line during a trolling session.31:51 Air in the freshwater accumulator is the most common cause of Schenker watermaker startup failure, and the fix requires a full flush-and-repressurize sequence rather than a simple restart.
