Vlad prepares his Amel 50, Mirage, for a new season in Martinique, reuniting with a spinnaker pole lost for nearly two years.0:16 All sails were removed and inspected at Infident Sales and passed without issue.0:34 A mechanical wind instrument was replaced with an ultrasonic anemometer.0:55 The most significant electrical upgrade is a 100-amp autotransformer converting 120V to 240V, allowing the air conditioning, heating, and all onboard systems to run from 110V shore power in U.S. waters — previously only the battery charger worked on that voltage.0:58 A Starlink Mini replaced the standard Starlink unit, reportedly cutting power consumption in half.2:18 A YACHT DEVICES Wi-Fi gateway now makes all NMEA 2000 instruments — depth, AIS, and vessel traffic — accessible over Wi-Fi.2:55 Routine maintenance covered oil, impeller, electric drive transmission, and a full generator service.2:04 Hatch seals on all hatches (manufactured around 2022) had lost elasticity and crumbled; Amel replaced them all under warranty.5:40 A Sena Blue wireless sensor network now monitors temperature and humidity in every cabin, the refrigerator, freezer, and engine compartment via a phone app, with batteries lasting 18–24 months.7:34
