Hva denne videoen dekker
A Dana 24 motors from Ensenada, Mexico, to San Diego, California, in December 2018, a 17-hour coastal passage. Shortly after departure, the engine emits steam from the exhaust, prompting the crew to reduce RPMs from 2,500 to 1,900 and clean the raw water strainer to ensure cooling flow.5:29 The vessel continues at a conservative 2,000 to 2,200 RPM for the remainder of the trip to avoid overheating, as the boat lacks a temperature gauge.13:32 The crew encounters kelp near the Las Coronados Islands, which briefly slows progress.15:03 Upon reaching San Diego Bay, the crew attempts to use the CBP Roam app for customs clearance.17:46 The app remains in "pending review" status, requiring the vessel to tie up at the Customs and Harbor Police Dock on Shelter Island for a manual inspection.19:55 The passage highlights the necessity of monitoring engine performance when relying on dummy lights and the limitations of mobile customs apps for immediate clearance.
