Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the 45-ft catamaran *Catalpa* performed an emergency recovery of their cat, Moritai, after he fell overboard in La Paz, Mexico.0:12 The cat fell from the duck board while the generator was running, and the strong 4.5-knot current swept him away from the vessel.3:23 The owner retrieved the cat from the water using the tender, but the animal required emergency veterinary care for water inhalation and low body temperature.4:18 The cat received oxygen and heat therapy at a clinic and required ongoing nebulizer treatments at the boat to clear his lungs.5:48 Separately, the crew attempted to restore the performance of their Sea Water Pro watermaker, which was producing only 25 gallons per hour instead of its rated 40.17:04 The membranes had been pickled in sodium metabisulfate for 16 months during a haul-out, causing degradation.17:40 The owner attempted to descale the membranes by circulating two specialized cleaning solutions through the system using a bucket-fed loop.18:29 The crew also replaced plastic non-return valves with bronze Groco fittings to improve system reliability.20:48
