Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Garrett completes a series of electrical and mechanical upgrades on his full-keel sailboat while stationed at a marina in Fiji. The primary project involves installing a new windlass, which requires running heavy-gauge cables from the bow to the battery bank, installing a solenoid, and wiring a foot switch. During the process, he loses his anchor in murky water and recovers it with the help of a diver using a scuba tank.3:26 After completing the wiring, his existing 100-amp-hour battery fails, necessitating a replacement with a 330-amp-hour lithium battery sourced from Suva.13:44 The installation also includes a new DC-to-DC charger and an inverter, allowing for the operation of an induction stove.12:00 The boat remains in the marina to weather a potential cyclone, with the owner securing the headsail as a precaution.14:33 The project concludes with the electrical system fully operational, though the vessel remains docked due to incoming storm systems.
