What this video covers

A sailing catamaran crew spends several days at an anchorage in Espiratu Santo, socializing with friends from the schooner Wolfhound. The crew assists the Wolfhound owners in clearing a fouled anchor line after a collision incident during a blustery night.4:11 While anchored, the crew uses underwater lights to attract fish, which subsequently draws a large group of rays to the hull.7:47 The crew also performs maintenance on the catamaran to eliminate interior squeaking caused by two bulkhead molding pieces rubbing together; they apply a bead of caulk between the pieces to allow for independent movement and silence the noise.11:09 After departing the anchorage in seven knots of wind, the crew motors to a nearby inlet recommended by friends for its hiking trails and rock formations.13:26 The crew and their guests hike the local trails before returning to the boat for more fishing.14:36
