What this video covers

The crew of Supernova faces repeated collisions while moored at a wall in a boatyard, where neighbouring vessels repeatedly strike their bowsprit due to poor manoeuvring by other boaters.3:34 After an initial failed attempt to haul the boat out at Coral Cove Marina—where the facility’s measurements proved inaccurate for the vessel's dimensions—the crew secures a successful haul-out at Peak Marine Services.17:01 The process involves navigating tight quarters and coordinating with staff for a lift.16:00 During the stay, the crew replaces a faulty fuel connector on their dinghy to resolve engine starting issues, emphasising the importance of keeping the engine running before untying from a dock.11:56 While waiting for battery replacements, the crew experiences a regional power and mobile service outage across Spain and Portugal, maintaining connectivity only through their onboard Starlink system.22:53 The crew manages boat maintenance tasks, organises gear, and prepares for upcoming repairs while awaiting the arrival of new batteries.26:21 Always verify haul-out dimensions with a yard before arrival, as facility measurements may be unreliable.
