Cosa tratta questo video
Andy performs a solo mast climb on his sailboat, Solé, to re-rig a detached lazy jack block at the spreader.1:59 He uses a bosun’s chair to reach the spreader, discovering that the bowline knots securing the lazy jacks to the boom have slipped near the ends of the lines; he re-ties them to prevent further failure.7:07 Before departing for Santa Catalina Island, he checks the engine oil and attempts a pump-out at his marina, but finds the facility inoperable.7:43 During the seven-nautical-mile motor to White Cove, he encounters significant residual swell and no wind, preventing him from raising the sails.8:52 Upon arrival, he anchors in 35 feet of water near Hen Rock.13:14 To mitigate rolling at anchor, he deploys a mushroom anchor and rocker stoppers suspended from the boom, which he holds in position using a preventer line.15:45
