Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of the 10-year refit project vessel *Brupeg* performs deck maintenance and troubleshooting at Magnetic Island, Queensland, while preparing for a passage to Cairns. Work includes applying non-skid deck paint in Horseshoe Bay, where the crew uses a V-notched block of wood as a guide to mark consistent, curved lines for the transition between yellow hull paint and grey deck grip.14:10 The team also attempts to identify and replace aging hydraulic solenoids for the autopilot system.2:27 Because the original identification tags were lost during a previous sinking, the crew cannot confirm if the existing solenoids are 12-volt or 24-volt units.2:49 Despite testing the components with a multimeter to measure resistance, the crew decides to hire a hydraulic specialist to analyze the system and ensure the correct 12-volt replacements are installed.6:31 The vessel remains anchored at Horseshoe Bay for provisioning and minor repairs before returning to Townsville.
