Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the 30-year-old cruiser NV requires a haul-out to replace their engine, a task complicated by the boat’s nearly 5-meter draft.0:33 After experiencing previous difficulties at a boatyard in Kudat, Malaysia—where the yard’s standard concrete-block support system proved inadequate and required a custom-dug pit—the crew drove 200 kilometers from Kota Kinabalu to negotiate a return to the facility.3:15 Despite language barriers and the yard’s primary focus on local fishing vessels, the crew secured a commitment from the manager to use the pit again in three weeks.5:59 Following the successful negotiation, the crew visited Tampat Do Aman, an eco-resort and jungle camp near the northern tip of Borneo.6:05 The resort features six and a half acres of nature reserve, a 100-foot suspension bridge, and a Rungus cultural museum.7:21 The facility offers jungle trekking, wildlife viewing, and access to nearby snorkeling and surfing beaches.9:19
