O que este vídeo aborda

Leo Goolden hauls Tally Ho, his 1910 Albert Strange gaff cutter, out of the water at Linton Bay Marina on the Atlantic side of Panama — one of the only boatyards on that coast.Watch The last haulout was 14 months earlier in Canada, and despite monthly bottom scrubbing and quality antifouling paint, bare wood has appeared along seams where expanding hull planks squeezed out the seam compound, and at spots where the boat touched a reef.7:10 In the tropics, exposed wood invites teredo worms and gribble, marine borers that enter through a pinhole but hollow out planking from inside; full antifouling coverage and two weeks of air exposure to kill any existing borers are the primary reasons for hauling.7:33 A second major job is installing a new NMEA 2000-networked depth transducer after the existing one failed and was never integrated into the ship's network.8:44 Additional planned work includes replacing anodes, greasing the prop and rudder fittings, head plumbing repairs, and repainting the topsides, last done over two years ago.9:07 A specific challenge of hauling a wooden boat in tropical heat is deck-plank desiccation; the marina sourced a tank of seawater so Leo can continue his daily saltwater deck wash.14:14 Neighboring boats at the yard include Alpine Gypsy, a Bruce Roberts 44 with a detached keel chunk requiring urgent repair.11:51
