Qué cubre este vídeo

Preparing a Westsail 32 named Sparrow for ocean sailing after an extended layup, Jerome Rand works through a multi-day refit at Bellhaven.Watch Hull painting is the most visible task — one side goes blue instead of the preferred red, requiring two coats applied on separate days.0:33 Below decks, the interior remains a work in progress.1:07 On deck, Rand reinstalls the tiller, rigs sheets, halyards, and reefing lines, fits the dodger, and sets up the Aries wind vane.1:40 The Aries control lines run out and crisscross midway down to cleats, with a safety line backing the attachment point — a precaution after a previous incident tore off the gallows and capro entirely.2:02 Navigation lights get replaced after water droplet damage degraded the old ones.1:18 Spray skirts are fitted but not yet shown.3:09 Remaining items flagged for the next session include sails, halyards, and a nav light.3:20 The refit underscores how many interdependent systems demand attention when a boat returns to service after a long period ashore.3:28
