Ce que couvre cette vidéo
A Catalina Morgan 440 named Blue Aweigh receives a walkthrough tour from its owner, with Mark from the keeldragger channel asking questions throughout. The boat is one of roughly 60 built between 2005 and 2008 using a Morgan hull mold, with fiberglass over two inches thick in places.18:39 The owner covers the full interior layout: a U-shaped cockpit, U-shaped galley, main salon with a fold-down settee, a projector mounted aft, and a nav station with a Victron Cerbo GX managing tank gauges, battery monitoring, and two reverse-cycle air conditioning units — the 16,000 BTU starboard unit recently replaced and wired to run off lithium batteries.0:53 House power comes from three 8D-size lithium batteries with a Balmar alternator and DC-to-DC charger.8:47 The engine is a Yanmar 4JH3TE turbocharged 70-hp diesel.9:48 All deck electronics are new Garmin, with a Vesper Cortex providing a third VHF plus AIS.10:15 Standing rigging is new after a full mast pull with new sheaves.13:16 The genoa is in-mast furling with a Sunbrella UV strip; the owner discusses jib car positioning and barber hauler options.13:49 Life raft recertification costs and the practical case for a smaller four-person valise over a heavy six-person canister are discussed at length.14:57 Dinghy stowage on the foredeck and switching to a lighter aluminum-bottom dinghy with a newer outboard are also covered.16:56
