Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of the 10-year refit project *Brupeg* upgrades from a small homemade aluminum tender to a larger, secondhand aluminum-bottom inflatable dinghy.0:18 To mount the new tender on the existing davits, the host adjusts the length of the Dyneema lifting strops by un-splicing and re-splicing the line to ensure the dinghy hangs level.3:58 During the maiden voyage, the new dinghy takes on water, and the self-bailing valve fails to drain the hull.21:50 After removing the outboard and fuel tank, the crew fills the dinghy with water to locate the source of the leak, discovering multiple pinhole punctures in the aluminum hull.22:39 While addressing the dinghy, the crew also performs interior renovations at Magnetic Island, including stripping and painting saloon walls and installing timber framing for bunk insulation.12:08 The host also attempts to repair faulty electrics on several portable scooters by swapping controllers.17:54 The project remains ongoing as the crew prepares for a transit to Cairns.
