Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 1989 CT56 anchored in the U.S. Virgin Islands during a COVID-19 lockdown manages mooring fees, water production, and storage organization. After relocating from St. Thomas to a mooring in Coneal Bay, St. John, the crew registers at the Cruz Bay park office to pay $26 per night for a mooring ball.0:44 To replenish water supplies, the crew installs a Rainman watermaker, initially attempting to power it through the boat's inverter.4:35 Because the 1300-watt load trips the inverter, the system is rewired to the generator’s 110-volt output, utilizing the dryer’s circuit as a temporary breaker.6:55 The installation requires temporary hose routing due to a lack of proper adapters.5:55 Additionally, the crew reorganizes the forward storage locker, formerly a captain’s cabin, to accommodate bow thruster components and scooters.10:06 The process concludes with a manual freshwater flush of the watermaker to prevent salt buildup.10:48
