Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

A complete refit tour of Isbjørn, a Swan 48 (S&S design) based at Hjelmos, Norway, covers every major system change made since the 2018 refit.0:22 In the cockpit, a new Pelagic autopilot replaces the old unit, six winches now serve the running rigging, and new tempered-glass headlights replace clouded plexiglass frames.2:07 The old electric windlass gave way to a Lofrans manual windlass controlled by a wireless remote and a forepeak button — foot switches were deliberately omitted because they corrode and fail.10:45 Below, rotten galley woodwork was rebuilt and the laminate worktop replaced with stainless steel matching Falcon's layout; the original stove was refurbished rather than replaced.12:05 A Garmin chartplotter serves as an instrument hub, mirroring data to iPads and phones throughout the boat and driving a forward-scanning sonar.16:27 Dakota Lithium batteries consolidate two separate banks into one compartment; essential systems run off a separate AGM battery charged by the lithium bank as a backup.22:23 An Iridium Go handles weather and email.15:27 The aft cabin gained a wet locker with plumbed heating, a Dometic fridge/freezer, a dedicated safety-gear locker, and a privacy curtain over the pilot berth.19:00 Hull stiffeners glassed into the chain locker forward address flexing identified on an early offshore passage.27:59 A Bergen-to-Shetland race in 30 knots confirmed the boat's watertight integrity: the bilge pump ran for eight seconds total.7:46
