Hva denne videoen dekker
After 11 months of liveaboard sailing, the skipper of Odin answers recurring reader questions on gear, safety, and power management.0:57 On water storage, he carries 300 liters in tanks plus 100 liters in deck jerricans, using bleach tablets to suppress bacterial growth; he recommends opaque containers and rotating stock within three weeks.1:44 He has no watermaker and flags it as a worthwhile investment despite the cost.1:37 Starlink draws 2–4 amps continuously and requires 10–15 minutes to acquire a satellite lock; he pairs it with a 600 Ah AGM battery bank, drawing no more than 50% (300 Ah usable) and consuming roughly 100 Ah per day underway.21:47 He argues that charging capacity — solar, wind generator, hydrogenerator — matters more than raw battery bank size.27:40 Two non-marine camping fridges (one top-opening, one front-opening) cost €160 total and work reliably, though the front-opening model spills contents when heeling to port.34:08 On safety, he recommends a life raft rated for more than 24 hours for offshore passages, adding jacklines, shroud steps at the mast base, and pre-departure vaccination (yellow fever and others cost him €180).35:10 A second FAQ part covering budget, couple dynamics, and maintenance is announced.1:02:59
