Qué cubre este vídeo

Pablo Berrus disassembles the rudder of his sailboat as part of preparations for a solo circumnavigation, the first time the rudder has been removed since the boat was built in 2009.0:06 To lower the rudder, he removes the steering quadrant, the autopilot arm — a metal bracket the hydraulic cylinder uses to move the rudder — and the associated linkages.0:18 He explains that the rudder shaft runs through the hull and is held in place by the autopilot arm and a pin, which he temporarily repositions to prevent the rudder from dropping uncontrolled during removal.0:35 With assistance from below to guide the rudder upward, he reinstalls the arm and pin to secure it once free.1:31 The goal is to inspect all components and return everything to full working condition before departure.Watch No findings from the inspection are reported in this video — the disassembly is still in progress.
