O que este vídeo aborda
Triteia, a 1965 Alberg 30, motors four miles up the Hatea River in New Zealand to reach the Town Basin Marina.3:35 The passage requires navigating a narrow, shallow channel where depths drop to five feet, leaving little clearance for the vessel’s 4.29-foot draft.5:31 The crew coordinates with the Hatea River Bridge operator via VHF radio to request an opening for the 12-meter mast.8:36 Upon arrival at the Riverside boatyard in Whangarei, the crew hauls out the vessel to pressure-wash and manually scrape the hull, as in-water cleaning services are unavailable in the region.17:00 The haul-out and spray service costs $125 USD.15:11 After relaunching, the vessel completes the final mile of the river transit to the marina.19:57 Navigating the Hatea River requires timing the passage within an hour of high tide to ensure sufficient water depth.3:20
