Cosa tratta questo video

A 1987 Warrior 38 named Athena undergoes maintenance at a yard in Trinidad while the crew prepares for future cruising.1:02 The host installs a new bronze through-hull fitting for the air conditioning system to eliminate a high spot in the hose run that previously caused overheating alarms.6:50 The installation involves drilling the hull, using a backing pad secured with thickened epoxy, and sealing the assembly with 4200.9:57 Additionally, the host integrates Ruuvi temperature sensors into the boat’s Victron Cerbo GX system to monitor the fridge, freezer, engine compartment, and technical spaces.12:20 Because the Cerbo GX hardware version on board had a disabled internal Bluetooth radio, the host installs an external USB Bluetooth dongle to enable connectivity.15:15 The sensor data is successfully logged and monitored via the Victron VRM portal, where the host configures alarm rules for temperature thresholds.18:30 A USB extension cable may be required to improve signal strength for sensors located in shielded areas like the freezer.17:02
