Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A MacGregor 26X owner sails Lake Champlain in shallow, one-foot-deep water to test spinnaker performance.2:48 After drifting away from an anchorage without using the motor, the operator deploys the spinnaker in light wind conditions.1:21 The boat maintains stability while sailing dead downwind, allowing the operator to outpace a larger vessel despite carrying partial water ballast.9:51 The operator uses a drone to monitor sail trim and rudder position while navigating the shallows.2:57 The session concludes with a return to the boat ramp and a chance encounter with a neglected MacGregor 26M on a trailer, which the operator inspects for design differences, noting the lack of a rotating mast and backstay.13:50 The trip marks the end of a nine-day excursion on the lake, with plans to transition into maintenance and trailer upgrades before heading south.14:13
