O que este vídeo aborda

The crew of NV, a sailboat with a failing sail drive, traveled 1,500 miles through shallow, reef-strewn waters to a boatyard on the north coast of Borneo to attempt a haul-out.13:06 The vessel has suffered from water intrusion in the gearbox oil for over a year, causing severe corrosion and intermittent gear engagement.1:34 After failing to replace the internal cone clutch and gears while afloat, the owner engineered a gravity-fed reservoir system to maintain positive oil pressure in the gearbox, preventing seawater from entering the unit during transit.6:21 The crew previously sourced a second-hand sail drive from the Netherlands via AB Marine Service, transporting the 40-kilogram unit to Indonesia in two suitcases.2:49 Plans to cross the Indian Ocean were postponed following the announcement of a pregnancy.10:37 The crew now seeks to haul out at the remote Borneo yard to perform a permanent repair, despite communication barriers and uncertainty regarding the facility's travel lift capacity.12:35
