Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of the wooden sailboat Yabá completes the installation of the main mast chain plates and the bow anchor support during the final stages of a three-year refit.0:03 The chain plates are secured to the hull using 6- to 8-centimeter lug screws, sealed with Sika-flex, and finished with wooden plugs.10:08 The anchor support is finalized with through-bolts and counter-washers to ensure structural integrity before the installation of the anchor chain box.2:51 Simultaneously, the electrical system receives upgrades, including the installation of a Victron Orion DC-DC charger.4:58 This unit is wired to the engine ignition to charge the lithium battery bank from the 12-volt alternator only while the engine runs.15:01 Testing confirms the Orion correctly disables output when the remote input is inactive, preventing starter battery depletion.15:49 Future tasks include sanding and oiling the masts, installing a ladder between the shrouds, and finalizing the Wakespeed, VHF, and navigation light systems.12:34
