Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of Yabá installs a transom-mounted platform shower and troubleshoots a malfunctioning water heater while anchored in Brazil. To install the platform shower, they drill a pilot hole from the engine room upward through the transom to ensure they avoid internal structural beams before cutting the final opening with a jigsaw.8:10 They seal the fixture using Sikaflex.9:29 Simultaneously, the crew diagnoses a recurring electrical fault in the boat’s water heater, which repeatedly trips the breaker.10:01 By bypassing the existing wiring and testing the circuit with a kettle, they isolate the fault to a faulty switch.10:15 Replacing the switch with two single-pole breakers restores power to the boiler, allowing it to draw the expected 1300 watts.13:31 The crew also corrects the boiler's orientation, ensuring the hot and cold water connections are properly positioned.12:21 The project concludes with the successful operation of both the new exterior platform shower and the repaired interior hot water system.
