Couple celebrates beside boat one year later

O que este vídeo aborda

A Smart Gyro stabilizer installation aboard Undra, a monohull hauled out in a European boatyard, drives most of the refit work covered here. Jason and Nikki Wynn chose the Smart Gyro over fin and rotary alternatives for three reasons: limited manufacturers build units for Undra's size and weight, it belongs to the Yanmar family for worldwide service support, and it can be serviced in the field without shipping to a specialist facility.2:02 The unit fits so tightly that technicians removed hatch doors to slide it in; the mounting spans four stringers instead of the originally planned two after engineers reconsidered aluminum fatigue over time.3:40 Separately, Jason removes two wind generators that are spooling erratically, caught in a dispute between manufacturer and installer, with the decision to repair or replace still open.4:52 A contractor patches the deck where the generator mounting box was removed. The couple also flies 28 hours to the Philippines to retrieve personal gear — life vests, bicycles, foil boards — left behind when they sold their previous catamaran to its manufacturer a year earlier; shipping quotes had exceeded $10,000.13:17 While there, friends Daryl and Shannon demonstrate clay-pot water filters and biosand filtration systems they build for off-grid communities across the Philippine islands.14:40 Back in the Netherlands, new arrivals include Fendertex compressible fenders and an electric outboard motor for the boat's tender.37:33
