Qué cubre este vídeo

After launching the wooden boat Yabá, the crew conducts initial sea trials and organizes the vessel for liveaboard life while moored at a shipyard.0:39 Despite the boat’s history of leaking, the hull remains dry with only minimal water ingress through the shaft gasket, confirming the planks and caulking have sealed effectively.13:37 The crew performs a short engine maneuver in the river to test responsiveness and sensor function before planning a transition to a mooring buoy.15:57 Remaining tasks before departing the shipyard include installing the mast slide, painting the boat’s name and registration number on the hull, and equipping the vessel with mandatory safety gear, including life jackets and a life buoy.15:17 The crew also successfully restarts a 15-horsepower two-stroke Evinrude outboard engine for their tender.10:28 The primary takeaway is that the wooden hull’s integrity is sufficient to prevent significant leaking, allowing the crew to shift focus from emergency repairs to final outfitting and legal compliance for coastal navigation.
