Qué cubre este vídeo
The 1965 Alberg 30 sloop Triteia anchors at Motu Matakohi, also known as Limestone Island, in New Zealand.7:26 After a sleepless night in an unprotected anchorage, the crew transits six miles to the island to explore the ruins of a historic cement factory and a nearby shipwreck site.1:51 While the crew is ashore, the vessel drags anchor in 25-knot gusts.26:21 Upon returning, the owner motors into the wind to reset the anchor in four meters of water, paying out seven times the depth in scope to ensure the boat remains in shallow water if it drags again.26:34 The island features hiking trails through former Maori cultivation sites and industrial ruins, though the area is subject to unexpected wind shifts despite local forecasts.12:12 The crew plans to navigate a complex river route the following day for a haul-out and bottom cleaning, as underwater hull maintenance services are unavailable in this region.26:59
