Qué cubre este vídeo
Ben and Ampi, owners of the 80-ft wooden boat Yabá, fulfill a subscriber milestone promise by rigging a hammock between the vessel's two masts to sleep 15 meters above the water.0:21 The crew initially attempts to set up the hammock in an exposed anchorage but relocates to a more sheltered spot to avoid wind-driven waves that cause excessive motion.17:26 For safety, Ben wears a climbing harness throughout the night, tethered to the mast and stays.16:40 The crew installs a new VHF antenna and an AIS transceiver, using a splitter to integrate the system with their existing plotter.4:20 Maintenance tasks include sanding and applying a coat of setol to the Conduru wood masts, a process the crew performs using a bosun's chair rather than a harness to prevent restricted circulation in the hamstrings.9:42 Despite cold temperatures and early morning dampness, the overnight stay in the mast is completed successfully.34:29
