The crew of the 1986 Pro Quasar catamaran Supernova upgrades their Starlink mounting system and electrical infrastructure while docked at a marina. They replace a temporary duct-tape mount with a permanent fixture repurposed from an old barbecue bracket, though they plan to lower the dish by seven inches to improve clearance.3:33 To mitigate heat buildup inside the cabin, they replace a 16-gauge power cord for the air conditioning unit with a 12-gauge wire and prepare to install custom sun covers for the slanted windows.15:10 While working, the crew tours the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race fleet, observing the boats' hydro-generators and discussing Southern Ocean conditions, including 70-knot winds and 20-meter waves.36:43 The Clipper crews report that they stow their anchors below deck while offshore and rely on either a main generator or hydro-generators for power.34:58 The Supernova crew concludes the visit by assisting the race boats with their departure from the marina.37:55
