Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Djé and Nad have been stuck at Carriacou for 180 days — six months — while fighting a legal dispute over their amateur-built catamaran, a situation they say has consumed three years of their sailing life when combined with prior and ongoing repairs.2:03 The dispute involves a court summons scheduled for late September, allegations that local authorities and police have allied against them, and a belief they are being used as bargaining chips.37:33 Djé was turned away from a courthouse visit for wearing shorts and bare shoulders; he returned the next day in jeans and shoes and obtained the required paperwork.3:38 On the boat, he installs two second-hand rope clutches (8–14 mm capacity) on the davit to solve a problem retrieving the dinghy, using TFgel on stainless screws into aluminum to prevent galvanic corrosion.14:35 He also works on epoxy bonding of panels in the engine compartment, losing time to rain squalls and a shin injury that caused nausea.30:26 The crew discusses their liability-only insurance — no hull coverage because no insurer would cover an amateur-built boat — and a new bilingual French-English social media group created to publicize their situation.42:57 Anchorage at Carriacou has thinned sharply; most cruisers now avoid stopping there.50:56
