Cosa tratta questo video
The owner of Solé prepares for a forecasted hurricane in Long Beach, California, by securing the dinghy, strapping down solar panels, and adding ratchet straps to the stack pack.8:45 While the storm proves to be a minor rain event, the owner uses the opportunity to perform maintenance on the headstay.12:13 After lowering the headsail and removing the furler shroud, the owner discovers two missing fasteners on the foil assembly, which caused the unit to separate.12:49 To tighten the headstay, the owner hoists the furling system with the headsail halyard to expose the turnbuckle, then applies two full turns to the adjustment.15:08 The owner consults the furler manual to ensure the bottom foil correctly rests on the stop pin before reinstalling the fasteners.18:43 The project concludes by re-rigging the headsail and tying double-hitch stopper knots in the jib sheets to prevent them from pulling through the blocks during tacks.20:12
