Cosa tratta questo video
Darcy completes the final STCW certification required to become a fully commercial IYT captain, qualifying Supernova for charter operations in the Caribbean.36:48 Yvette completes the same course to work legally as crew.0:17 The five-day course, run by Crew Training Solutions in Mallorca, covers firefighting with real extinguishers and hoses under instruction from active firefighters, basic first aid including improvised splinting, and in-water life raft training — six students inflate a life raft, flip it, and board it while instructors spray it with hoses to simulate storm conditions.36:15 The crew's advice for the life raft drill: assign every person a specific job before entering the water, with a backup job, and rehearse the sequence as a team.24:59 Darcy notes that doing the commercial IYT qualification rather than a recreational course opens chartering possibilities and reduced their insurance premium.37:31 Back at the boatyard, Darcy drops both rudders on the Sunreef 62 and finds the rudder post on the first one heavily corroded with visible pitting and holes, and the rudder itself cracked at the top — the post cannot be reinstalled and must be replaced.34:59
