Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The crew of SV Cordelia, a Venus 46, prepares for the 2025 sailing season after spending 12 months on a mooring in Martinique. Maintenance tasks include cleaning the hull, which had developed significant growth despite an application of Coppercoat antifouling, and repairing davits cracked during a 2017 grounding on a shingle bank near the Needles, UK.4:36 The repair requires welding and re-routing GPS and lighting cables through the davit tubes, which the crew terminates using Wago connectors inside a junction box.6:03 Due to high marina costs in Aruba, the crew evaluates summer storage options in Guatemala, Grenada, Trinidad and Tobago, Martinique, and Curacao, ultimately selecting Guatemala for its lower cost and dog-friendly status.8:13 After completing the repairs, the crew departs the mooring for their first anchorage in a year.8:51 The transition involves updating the dog’s travel documents to French requirements.12:34
