Adriano Plotzky prepares his boat for departure from Aratu Iate Clube in Salvador, Brazil, after an extended stay for major refits.1:16 To facilitate water transport from the dock to his boat, he installs a 150-liter flexible water bladder in his dinghy, using a 3/4-inch valve and a pump system to transfer water to the main tanks.7:23 He also repairs galvanic corrosion on his dinghy's outboard motor leg, caused by an improperly installed stainless steel hydrofoil, by sanding the aluminum and applying a specialized primer.4:59

As he finalizes preparations for a northward passage, Plotzky reflects on the difficulty of leaving a supportive sailing community.12:48 His departure is delayed when the autopilot fails shortly after leaving his mooring; the unit moves only in one direction despite his attempts to bleed the hydraulic system and clean electrical connections.15:54 He plans to consult a hydraulic specialist in Salvador to resolve the issue before his next weather window.16:49
