Wenceslao and Sylvie prepare a sailboat named Zen for a transit from the Netherlands to Valencia, Spain.9:06 The project involves extensive maintenance on the 9,000-euro vessel, including sanding and applying antifouling paint to the hull.8:17 They reinforce the keel-to-hull joint using a stainless steel wire brush and sealant to prevent corrosion.15:07 The crew installs a Starlink satellite system and a diesel heater, while also refurbishing an Optimus dinghy by sanding and repainting it.9:40 During the refit, they mount a radar tower but must remove it to ensure the boat maintains a low enough profile to clear bridges along the canal route.23:20 The boat is launched using a travelift, a specialized crane system common in marinas for hauling and launching vessels.31:43 The pair emphasizes that antifouling paint requires the boat to enter the water within a specific window, typically a few days to two weeks after application, to maintain its anti-fouling properties.17:34
