Cosa tratta questo video
The new vessel is a 2009 Bungo 870, a 28-foot, 3-ton sailboat with a flat, open transom and twin rudders.1:11 Designed for downwind performance, the boat shares naval architecture with the Pogo, Django, and Mojito series.1:42 The planned refit includes replacing the current hanked-on mainsail and headsails with a furling system and installing a top-down furler for the spinnaker.1:58 The existing ST2000 autopilot will be upgraded to an NKE system capable of steering to true wind, apparent wind, and compass headings, which is necessary for the boat's high-speed downwind surfing characteristics.2:49 Additional modifications include installing two solar panels and restoring the interior, which currently lacks a head and table.3:15 The boat features a 20-horsepower, 3-cylinder Volvo engine.8:28 Maneuvering the twin-rudder configuration requires adjusting to the lack of prop wash over the rudders during low-speed handling.9:05
