Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Squib completes a solo passage from the Gulf of Corinth to Mesolonghi, Greece, arriving at the marina after two days of difficult weather including thunderstorms and a heavy rain front.5:39 The approach to Mesolonghi requires rounding a shallow, flat-topped peninsula that extends several hundred meters underwater; the skipper identifies a marker buoy to stay south of and avoid grounding.2:57 He cuts the first two entrance buoys, knowing from prior visits that depth stays adequate for Squib's draft, and docks ahead of a larger yacht to secure a preferred berth.5:00 Haulout at Mesolonghi Marina involves a mismatch between the boat's beam and the trailer width; the yard crew ultimately positions Squib crosswise on the trailer after a 30-minute delay.10:01 Winterization work over three days includes flushing both engines with fresh water, drying and removing sails, taking down the lazyjacks, and mounting two 10-watt solar panels through separate solar regulators to maintain the starter batteries over winter.12:28 The Windpilot wind vane is removed and stored, with a detailed walkthrough of its sacrificial plastic shear pin, axial rudder bearing, cockpit-adjustable wind-angle lines, and safety retention cord.14:11 A Seaflow self-priming pump flushes the seacock.18:06 The skipper reflects that the full voyage from Vienna down the Danube, across the Black Sea, through Turkey, and into Greece spanned 33 episodes and was completed under time pressure with an unfinished refit — a combination he would not repeat.7:13
