Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of Nandji - Frothlyfe, currently anchored in Indonesia, manages a series of mechanical failures while preparing for a passage to Thailand. The generator shut down due to an overheated cooling system, which triggered an emergency circuit breaker; the issue was resolved after consulting the manual and resetting the fault button. Simultaneously, the vessel’s alternator stopped charging the house bank due to a loose connection on the negative bus bar. The crew also experienced a total power loss after accidentally draining the starter batteries while attempting to jump-start the engine from the house bank. To secure fuel for the upcoming transit, the crew transported 130 liters of diesel via scooter, using a manual strainer to filter the fuel for contaminants and water, a common issue in the region. The crew plans to service the engine, sump pump, and toilets before departing for a remote island transit. Reading the equipment manual before attempting repairs prevents unnecessary troubleshooting.
