Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of Solé, a Catalina 30, tests Davis rocker stoppers while anchored at White Cove on Santa Catalina Island.3:01 To reduce rolling in the anchorage, the crew rigs three of the four available rocker stoppers on a line attached to a small mushroom anchor.6:48 While the devices provide some stabilization, the crew notes they do not eliminate all motion.6:14 During the stay, the crew observes a SpaceX rocket launch from the anchorage.4:17 The vessel later departs for a return passage to Long Beach, California.9:12 During the transit, the crew experiences difficulty with the boat’s tendency to head up into the wind, which causes the autopilot to struggle in 15 knots of wind.12:48 The crew motors through the busy Queensgate entrance to avoid heavy commercial traffic, including ferries and container ships.14:52 A manual windlass proves inadequate for the deep water encountered, prompting plans for an electric upgrade.10:19
