Hva denne videoen dekker

The crew of the trimaran La Vagabonde arrives in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, following a shakedown cruise marked by a shredded sail, a malfunctioning electrical propulsion system, and a seized diesel engine.0:06 The propulsion failure stemmed from a loose grub screw on the propeller assembly, which required the crew to luff up and depower the vessel to allow the propellers to close.1:25 Technicians determine the Yanmar engine is seized, likely due to water ingress, necessitating a full removal and overhaul by a local gantry service.17:43 Meanwhile, the crew arranges for Stratus in New Zealand to ship replacement panels for the damaged sail to China for repair.23:15 While awaiting repairs, the crew reorganizes the navigation desk and prepares the vessel for an extended stay in the marina.23:34 They ultimately decide to depart the port without the repaired diesel engine, opting to rely solely on the boat's electric propulsion system for their next passage toward Palawan.26:15
