Qué cubre este vídeo
A new catamaran, *Curiosity*, undergoes its initial launch at the factory, requiring a brief haul-out to address a leaking depth sounder transducer before successfully floating.5:44 The vessel weighs 10,061 kg without its mast or rigging.6:09 During the subsequent mast-stepping process, technicians discover the shrouds are incorrectly sized, necessitating a delay for professional trimming and approval by Selden.10:32 While awaiting the mast, the crew monitors the installation of a new solar array featuring individual Genasun MPPT controllers for each panel, a departure from the original seven-controller design.12:27 The interior construction utilizes foam-composite cabinetry to minimize weight, and the boat includes a built-in fuel polishing system designed to mitigate algae growth in the hybrid propulsion system's diesel tanks.15:30 The crew also plans for future storage and equipment, including the potential addition of compact electric bikes for shore transport.13:58 Delays in boat construction often require logistical pivots, including adjustments to visa timelines and local lodging.11:35
