Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Garrett and Ruth move their home-built boat, Red Aviva, from a marina in the Napa River to a nearby anchorage to step the mizzenmast.1:30 Because the vessel lacks an engine and sails, they use a dinghy hip-tied to the hull for propulsion.2:04 They time the departure to coincide with tidal currents to assist with maneuvering.2:19 Once anchored in a clear area to avoid liability and potential collisions, they rig a lifting boom to hoist the mast.1:43 Garrett manages the lifting line and positioning while Ruth and a crew member named Reed handle the guy lines and throat to guide the spar into the mast step.7:27 They secure the mast with wooden wedges, confirming the orientation of the blocks before finalizing the installation.11:03 After completing the task, they return to the dock using the same hip-tie method.13:46
