Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Thilo and Leonie prepare their newly purchased sailboat for launch while it remains on the hard at a shipyard in Sardinia, Italy. The couple sorts through extensive spare parts left by the previous owner, installs a new drainage system for the galley sink to connect to a gray-water tank, and sands and oils the cockpit teak benches.9:44 They also install a roller-furling genoa system, marking their transition to using a furler rather than manually hanked headsails.4:11 Due to pending insurance and bureaucratic requirements, the boat remains on land while the pair travels to Germany to manage administrative tasks and have new beige upholstery covers sewn for the interior cushions.17:47 Upon returning to the shipyard, Thilo continues final preparations alone after Leonie falls ill.19:07 The boat is scheduled for launch on the following Monday, after which the pair plans to begin sailing.19:35
