Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 28-ft Pearson Triton named Atom, sailed by her owner on two circumnavigations over 45 years, is now for sale and presented here in a full deck-to-bilge tour covering every upgrade made across those decades.0:09 The inboard gas engine was removed and replaced with a custom tilt-up outboard well housing a 6-hp motor, sealing the well from the bilge to prevent fumes and flooding.2:33 The fractional rig was replaced with a masthead staysail sloop ("slutter") setup carrying a 140% furling genoa, a removable inner stay for a 35-sq-ft storm jib, a battenless three-reef mainsail on a Tides Marine luff track, and a furling code zero on a removable sprit pole.5:38 The balsa deck core was replaced with foam core in Hawaii.4:23 Navigation electronics include a pelagic autopilot, VHF with AIS receiver, depth sounder, 100 Ah LiFePO4 battery, 1,100-watt inverter, and 30-amp shore power.21:09 The Lavac wet toilet was replaced with a DIY dry bucket toilet to eliminate holding-tank plumbing.22:29 Five independent watertight compartments under the V-berth are designed to keep the boat afloat after a collision.24:26 The owner recommends pairing an electric autopilot with a wind vane for offshore passages, using each where it performs best.21:51
