Ce que couvre cette vidéo
La Vagabonde, a carbon-fiber catamaran, sustains engine damage after a rope wraps around the propeller shaft, bending all four engine mounts.4:44 The crew docks at Iso Fishing Port on Yakushima Island, Japan, to source replacement mounts while monitoring incoming typhoons.3:42 They coordinate with Yanmar service technicians to procure four specific mounts—two 200s and two 150s—from three different warehouses.5:24 Because the engine cannot be safely operated for maneuvering in an anchorage while the mounts are compromised, the crew prioritizes docking at a concrete wall to perform the repair.12:23 They eventually depart for mainland Japan to reach the Inland Sea, a protected area considered a typhoon hole, as weather forecasts predict 40- to 50-knot gusts from a second approaching storm.14:00 During the transit, the vessel reaches speeds of 15 knots.13:46 The crew emphasizes the necessity of securing a fixed berth for engine maintenance when the propulsion system is unstable, as dragging anchor would require engine power that the damaged mounts cannot reliably support.
