Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The Meder family aboard Kira-Kira, a 36-foot steel Van de Stadt Seal, tows a 45-foot sailboat with a broken engine to a new mooring within Saco de Useu, an anchorage in the Ilha Grande region near Angra dos Reis, Brazil.▶ 0:47 The towed vessel draws 1.80 meters — about 20 centimeters more than Kira-Kira — a meaningful difference in the shallow, buoy-dense anchorage.▶ 1:38 The crew uses a 200-meter high-resistance tow line, passes it via a monkey's fist after several attempts, and keeps the wind on the bow throughout to hold alignment.▶ 4:07 Gunther paddles a kayak to the towed boat to carry the mooring line to the nearest buoy.▶ 5:04 Separately, Rocio and Gunther make a provisioning run to a wholesale market in Angra dos Reis to stock up ahead of all three children's December birthdays.▶ 8:38 Herman modifies a full canvas cover, replacing it with cane shade structures for sun protection.▶ 9:44 Rain prompts an opportunistic deck wash.▶ 7:56 In shallow, buoy-crowded anchorages, knowing the draft of the vessel being towed is essential to avoid grounding either boat or fouling the tow line on mooring ground tackle.
