Qué cubre este vídeo

The 1965 Alberg 30 sloop Triteia motors five miles up a narrow river in New Zealand to reach the Quayside Boatyard for a bottom job.5:41 Navigating the river requires timing the transit with a rising tide, as the channel is narrow and chart data through the mangroves is unreliable.7:10 At the yard, the vessel is hauled out using a custom hydraulic trailer system designed to operate on a tidal ramp where boats sit in the mud at low tide.16:31 Maintenance includes applying two full coats of International Ultra 2 hard bottom paint to the hull and three coats to the rudder.13:33 The bootstripe is raised four inches and finished with three coats of yellow anti-fouling paint to mitigate tropical growth.13:56 The yard also replaces the propeller zinc and moves the support stands to paint the underlying hull sections.14:30 The facility, operated by fourth-generation boat builders, features a nearby freshwater quarry for swimming and historical ruins from a former cement factory.19:46
