Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of Supernova installs an external deck shower at La India Cove, Mexico, while waiting for the Tehuantepec winds to subside.Watch They route fresh and saltwater lines through the hull using existing propane conduits and a diverter valve, utilizing flexible air-line hose sourced from Green Line Hose. The project includes clearing a forward locker of excess rope and chain to accommodate jerry cans. Before departing, the crew cleans the speed sensor and replaces a sacrificial anode. They attempt to sail off the anchor but eventually motor-sail to maintain speed through the Tehuantepec region, noting that a fouled hull is significantly hindering their progress. During a night ashore, they observe sea turtles nesting on the beach. To prevent jib sheet blocks from damaging the deck, they fabricate soft shackles using shock cord. The crew concludes that cleaning the hull before a passage is essential for maintaining target boat speed.
