Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of Doodles transits from Nassau to Highborne Key in the Exuma Islands, Bahamas, covering approximately 35 miles in under two hours.1:13 Winds blow from the north-northeast, creating choppy conditions for the southeast passage.0:27 Upon arrival, the crew anchors and deploys a 3-kilowatt Jackery portable power station connected to 400 watts of solar panels to power the boat’s refrigerator and house systems, reducing reliance on the onboard generator.3:35 To improve dinghy towing, the crew constructs a bridle using floating line to prevent fishtailing and plans to use carabiners for secure attachment to the boat’s stern cleats.6:54 The crew also tests the dinghy’s outboard motor and meets friends aboard the Neal 47 Supernova before dining at the Highborne Key marina.9:22 Using a bridle and proper towing lines stabilizes a lightweight dinghy during transit, while portable lithium power stations offer a viable alternative to running a generator at anchor.
