Qué cubre este vídeo

The owners of the 42-foot Catalpa 2 travel from a boatyard in Puerto Peñasco, Mexico, to San Diego, California, to sell a Monitor windvane and purchase essential rigging supplies.0:54 While the parents are away, their children manage the boatyard logistics, coordinating with staff to move neighboring vessels and clear a path for a crane to step the boat's main and mizzen masts.5:09 The crew replaces the standing rigging with new turnbuckles and wire, utilizing a custom-built trolley and a Dyneema-based rigging technique to avoid going aloft during the mast-stepping process.18:45 After returning to Mexico, the crew cleans the masts with mild detergent to remove accumulated dust and steel particles before the scheduled lift.18:02 Despite initial delays caused by boatyard congestion and the need to move multiple catamarans, the crew secures a clear path for the crane to access the boat.20:17 The project aims to finalize the rig and prepare the vessel for relaunching.
