O que este vídeo aborda

Jeff and Adrienne converted a Leopard 45 previously operated as a crewed charter yacht into a full-time liveaboard and document every modification. On deck, they added a Raymarine Quantum Doppler radar, upgraded the helm MFD from 9-inch to 12-inch Raymarine, and ran a dedicated coax cable up the mast for AIS, keeping a separate cable for VHF.8:21 Solar capacity grew from 200 watts factory-installed to 1,600 watts total via four 350-watt panels on a new solar arch that also shelters the dinghy.1:07 The life raft moved from an inaccessible aft locker to a deck cradle for emergency deployment.1:40 Three lead-acid 200 Ah batteries were replaced with lithium for faster charging, deeper discharge, and reduced weight.19:15 A Strataglass cockpit enclosure encloses the helm station fully; sunshades on all sides cut interior heat.4:21 Five stacked parasailor blocks and port and starboard double clutches were installed largely by the crew.2:19 Security additions include Wi-Fi-independent motion-activated pirate lights with a siren, Ring doorbells fore and aft, and Luminaid solar inflatable lights hung at bow and stern overnight at anchor.14:46 A Rocna 73 anchor replaced the supplied Delta 55. Boarding steps were added to each side of the swim platform.18:22 Galley changes include a new faucet, trash-bin handles, double cabinet doors replacing a single door, and an outdoor cockpit refrigerator that came with the crewed-yacht package but had to be shipped separately.23:51 A rubber rub rail and custom branding stripe were applied to the hull exterior.21:40
