Qué cubre este vídeo

Garrett and Ruth perform a series of running rigging upgrades on their home-built boat to improve sailing efficiency before departing a mooring in Mexico. Garrett replaces twisted three-strand halyards with new line, installs swiveling blocks for two new spinnakers, and adds forward attachment points for the main preventer.5:03 He also fabricates a copper chafe guard for the pin rails to prevent lines from catching.9:56 The crew opts against using the onboard water maker while moored in a crowded bay due to concerns about water quality, opting instead for reverse osmosis water from the docks.13:57 After completing the rigging projects, they depart to rendezvous with Reed, who is single-handing his Landfall 39, Imua.12:55 The pair sails in light winds, reaching speeds of 4.5 knots, and discusses the benefits of sobriety while cruising.19:06 They anchor at Belandra after wind shifts alter their original plan to meet at Vee Cove on Isla Carmen.21:17
