Cosa tratta questo video

Doodles sustained hull damage to the port side after an engine failure during a docking maneuver in high winds in Miami.10:27 The crew relocated the vessel to Fort Lauderdale to facilitate professional fiberglass repairs, which involved grinding out the damaged area, applying bi-axial fiberglass, and color-matching the gelcoat finish.10:44 While in Fort Lauderdale, the crew upgraded the ground tackle by replacing a short 15-foot chain lead with 140 feet of new chain to improve holding in deeper water.12:33 They also installed a Garmin 943 XSV chartplotter and a hydraulic autopilot system.14:36 The autopilot installation required additional hydraulic lines and custom engineering to integrate the new Garmin components with the boat's existing hydraulic steering system.14:18 The crew marked the new chain in 20-foot segments using colored zip ties to track depth during deployment.13:09
