Hva denne videoen dekker

Garrett, owner of the 45-ft monohull Hooligan, transits from Fiji to New Zealand aboard a 45-ft Outremer catamaran to repair a water-damaged laptop essential for his work.1:52 The six-day passage covers approximately 570 miles with favorable weather, allowing the crew to maintain high speeds and stable conditions that contrast sharply with the performance of his own vessel.8:46 While Hooligan remains in a Fiji marina undergoing repairs for a corroded fuel tank vent and a worn cutlass bearing, Garrett uses the transit to evaluate the comfort and speed of multihull sailing.1:07 Upon arriving in Auckland, he finds repair delays necessitate purchasing a replacement computer.10:41 He uses the time in New Zealand to acquire a new surfboard and study celestial navigation using sight reduction tables.10:59 The experience prompts a shift in his future cruising plans, moving away from upwind routes toward the Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, and Indonesia.7:23
