Cosa tratta questo video
Barry Perrins prepares his boat in Plymouth for future voyages by addressing electrical capacity, navigation equipment, and safety gear. To increase power generation, he purchases a stainless steel arch designed for the stern to support additional equipment.4:51 He also troubleshoots a discolored, opaque compass that previously failed during a passage from Portugal across the Bay of Biscay.5:20 After testing the original fluid with white spirit and observing that they mixed, he determines the base is a solvent rather than an oil.7:02 He successfully refills the compass housing using baby oil via a syringe, clearing the visibility issues despite the presence of a small air bubble.7:29 Finally, he replaces his 20-year-old diving equipment with a new set after local service technicians refused to inspect the aging gear.7:43 These maintenance tasks serve as preparation for upcoming sailing plans.
