Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of Nandji - Frothlyfe repairs a faulty Victron MultiPlus inverter-charger while anchored in Nosy Be, Madagascar, after a six-week delay waiting for replacement parts.8:35 The unit’s DC board repeatedly shorted out, preventing the device from charging batteries or providing AC power.10:50 A local technician bypassed the damaged resistor by installing a temporary fuse, allowing the inverter to function for AC loads while disabling its battery-charging capability.11:11 To maintain power, the crew relies on their externally regulated alternator and solar array for battery charging, while reserving the generator solely to power the watermaker.11:47 Before departing, the crew provisions 360 liters of diesel using recycled 20-liter containers transported via tuk-tuk.5:42 They plan to sail south along the west coast of Madagascar toward Richards Bay, South Africa, to avoid the upcoming cyclone season.16:29 The crew notes that the Mozambique Channel requires careful passage planning due to strong currents and rapid southerly weather shifts.16:50
