O que este vídeo aborda
The crew boards a 2016 Leopard 48 named Riptide in the Abacos for a day of snorkeling and free diving.▶ 2:33 Before departing, the owner reports a DC system failure where the bus registered 16.5 volts.▶ 2:07 The crew resolves the issue by shutting down all solar MPPT controllers and resetting the system, which restores normal voltage.▶ 1:52 During the trip, the crew utilizes a Blue Nomad tankless dive system, which features a battery-powered surface compressor.▶ 0:45 While snorkeling near a reef, the crew encounters strong tidal currents that complicate the use of the surface-floating compressor.▶ 8:08 To manage the current, the group transitions to a drift dive, using the dinghy to travel up-current before drifting back toward the anchored catamaran.▶ 9:20 The day concludes with the crew preparing mahi-mahi tacos on board.▶ 6:45
