Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the sailing boat *namaste* stops at a marina in San Frugos, Cuba, to perform repairs and explore the island.Watch After lightning damage, the boat requires electrical system troubleshooting; a fellow cruiser helps replace a dead solar panel and MPPT controller, allowing the remaining panels to be wired in series to maintain battery levels.4:09 The owner also installs a borrowed autopilot, which requires splicing and soldering NMEA 0183 wiring to integrate with the boat's existing SeaTalk network.0:32 Additionally, the crew reinstalls a windvane self-steering system for upcoming passages.0:36 While based at the marina, the crew takes private taxi excursions to visit Trinidad, the El Nicho waterfalls, and Havana.1:11 They navigate local logistics by booking private casas rather than using online platforms, noting that passports are not stamped upon entry.3:03 The crew observes significant local poverty and recommends bringing supplies for distribution.1:57 They find that low-season tourism allows for easier price negotiation for local services and classic car tours.12:00
