Qué cubre este vídeo

The refit of a Leopard 50 in Saint Petersburg involves extensive electrical and climate control upgrades. Technicians are installing a 55,000 BTU Thermodynamica VRV air conditioning system, which utilizes a central compressor and refrigerant lines to feed multiple air handlers, replacing traditional ductwork. The installation requires cutting into seating bases to accommodate the handlers. Electrical work includes wiring a new MFD at the helm, a Vesper VHF, and a suite of mast-mounted electronics, including a night vision camera and a modified tricolor anchor light with a sensor.6:04 To support the power demands, the team is installing a 15,000-watt Victron inverter. Because of the unit's 200-pound weight, the crew is fabricating a custom aluminum frame that serves as both a mounting bracket and a heat sink, rather than using a standard wooden mounting deck. The project faces an upcoming challenge regarding the rigging, which threatens the owner's departure timeline.
