Qué cubre este vídeo

Oliver prepares for a solo, non-stop circumnavigation by conducting sea trials in the Straits of Juan de Fuca aboard his boat, With Phoenix | Oliver.5:21 Before departing, he discovers a coolant leak at the fresh water pump, which he replaces rather than rebuilding.3:47 During the trials, he tests his electrical systems, including a hydro generator and a Wakespeed regulator, noting that initial performance issues stemmed from incorrect settings.42:10 He manages battery charging via the Victron system while navigating coastal waters, opting for the autopilot over the Hydrovane to maintain precise control in current-heavy, near-shore conditions.13:32 He also addresses a furler wrap and experiments with wing-on-wing sailing using a whisker pole and preventer.16:20 After an 18-hour passage, he anchors in Neah Bay, Washington, using city lights for visibility in the absence of moonlight.19:12 He concludes that his two-year refit has resulted in reliable installations, though he continues to refine his food storage strategy to ensure a million-calorie supply for the upcoming voyage.36:43
