Qué cubre este vídeo
A 40-foot sailboat steps its keel-stepped mast at a marina in Castleton, New York, using a crane service to transition from a motor-vessel configuration back to a sailing rig.10:32 The crew manages the 800-pound mast by coordinating one person below deck to guide the base into the keel step while others operate the crane and maneuver the boat to align the spar.17:19 Wireless headsets prove essential for clear communication between the deck and the cabin during the alignment process.18:47 Because the crane’s boom has limited lateral movement, the crew finds it more efficient to jiggle the boat to thread the mast into the slot rather than relying solely on the crane.14:34 After securing the stays, the crew spends an additional day installing the boom, running halyards, and reconnecting solar panels.19:54 The boat then moves to its first anchorage on the Hudson River to test a new Mantus anchor.20:20
