Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Nova Loman prepares her sailboat for winter in Stockholm, Sweden, by installing insulation and protective covers to manage sub-zero temperatures.0:07 To reduce heat loss through the windows, she cuts cheap camping foam pads to fit the interior frames, a method that previously maintained an interior temperature of 24°C during -14°C weather.4:27 She secures exterior tarps over the deck using heavy anchor chain and additional lines to prevent wind damage.2:10 To protect a fragile, aging dodger from snow accumulation and ice weight, she installs a multi-purpose canvas cover, which also keeps the companionway clear of snow.5:16 Before installation, she repairs a tear in this canvas using a sewing machine.6:31 She notes that the solar panel regulator failed during the previous winter, necessitating careful management of electrical systems during the cold months.6:09 These measures prioritize heat retention and structural protection for the vessel while moored for the season.
