Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of SV Delos departs a crowded, rolly anchorage in Hiva Oa, French Polynesia, after a neighboring catamaran drags anchor and strikes their transom twice.2:19 Because the neighboring vessel’s anchor and chain lie directly over their own, the crew waits for a favorable wind shift to safely weigh anchor without risking a tangle.2:52 Upon reaching the nearby island of Tahuata, the crew performs routine maintenance, including replacing sacrificial zinc anodes on the rudder.8:48 They note that the starboard and port zincs eroded unevenly, likely due to a poor electrical connection in the bonding system.9:56 The crew also explores the local underwater topography, which consists of steep volcanic rock formations rather than coral reefs.12:19 They conclude the passage with household tasks, including baking banana bread, while preparing for future maintenance projects on their vessel.13:58
