What this video covers

Hitomi spends a solo day aboard the sailboat at Sacodari Beira, a well-known anchorage in Ubatuba, Brazil, while Tomio takes the removed engine panel ashore for repairs.0:35 With the boat moored among a dense spread of yachts and boats, Hitomi uses the rare unscheduled time to air out damp gear and bedding after a stretch of rainy days, tend to onboard plants that had lost vigor during a marina stay, cook gorgonzola cheese pasta for lunch, and prepare focaccia — a second attempt after an unsatisfying first try.2:18 Tomio returns in the evening with the repaired engine panel; a quick test confirms it works.12:03 Dinner is curry, which Tomio had been requesting for some time, served alongside the focaccia, which Hitomi judges a success.12:42 The evening ends with a walk to watch the sunset and a relaxed dinner conversation about eating curry with a fork in Brazil rather than a spoon, a habit shift prompted by the local stroganoff culture.9:55
