Qué cubre este vídeo
Cozzy and Mitcho rename their Leopard 40 catamaran from Waiheke to Salty Days, deliberately breaking the maritime superstition against changing a vessel's name.5:47 They researched the original name's meaning, found none, and decided their brand name better represented their way of life — then applied new vinyl lettering while anchored at La Marina.6:02 The renaming follows the ancient King Neptune ledger tradition they acknowledge but set aside.6:31 The episode is set at Le Maran Marina, a large Mediterranean-style facility where they anchor and take a berth stern-to.0:44 The marina recently changed hands and proved nearly impossible to reach by email; VHF channel 9 is the working contact.11:32 Fuel (50 litres) and four tanks of water are available dockside, with restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance.11:04 Practical cruising realities covered include laundromat runs costing roughly 40 Australian dollars per load, cleaning the Starlink dish during a rain shower using a mop with sugar soap, and provisioning in euros.4:51 The crew departs for St Lucia with a new trawling rod and a spinning rod, targeting mahi-mahi.12:21 Renaming a boat with no cultural meaning attached to the original name carries no practical consequence beyond the vinyl work itself.5:45
