Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The 10-year rebuild of the fishing trawler Brupeg culminates in a two-stage launch process necessitated by the vessel's 2.2-meter draft and the marina's shallow 1-meter depth at low tide.8:02 Because the main engine remains non-functional during the initial launch to allow for in-water alignment, the crew coordinates a tow using a small tugboat and a secondary dinghy to maneuver the vessel into its berth.9:05 Preparations for the launch include welding 20 sacrificial anodes to the hull at 1.5-meter intervals, applying antifouling paint to the keel cooling system, and re-tapping seawater inlet bolts to metric sizes.0:56 The crew also stows heavy equipment, including outboards and metalworking tools, and cleans the fuel tanks by flushing them with diesel to prepare for a new hydraulic oil system.13:09 The vessel enters the water without a functioning engine or hot water system, as the project remains an active work boat build.11:08 Launching a deep-draft vessel in a shallow marina requires precise tidal planning and auxiliary towing support when the main propulsion system is offline.
