Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of La Vagabonde departs Apataki for a two-day passage to Tahiti, anchoring in a shallow, reef-lined lagoon before departure.0:16 To secure the boat in the tight space, the crew drops the anchor in three meters of water and uses a stern line tied to a friend’s mooring ball.0:52 Maintenance tasks during the stop include replacing a squeaking fan belt, which requires using an alpine butterfly hitch and tensioning lines to slide the new belt onto the pulley.3:55 Security issues arise when a fan hacks the boat's website, forcing a password reset, and a fishing rod is stolen from the deck.4:23 During the passage, a cabin light fixture begins to smolder and melt, requiring immediate removal to prevent a fire.8:23 The crew motors the final stretch in calm conditions, arriving at a marina in Tahiti for a scheduled haul-out to install a new through-hull fitting for a watermaker.7:01
