Barcos de Apoio - Marina de Santo Antonio de Lisboa - Florianópolis SC Os barcos de apoio desempenham um papel essencial ao levar os tripulantes até suas embarcações atracadas em poitas. Essas embarcações, também conhecidas como botes de apoio ou botes de desembarque, são utilizadas para transportar pessoas, suprimentos e equipamentos entre a terra firme e as embarcações que estão ancoradas. Santo Antônio de Lisboa, um bairro localizado em Florianópolis, no estado de Santa Catarina, Brasil, é um exemplo onde essa prática é comumente observada. O bairro está situado às margens da Baía Norte, que abriga inúmeras embarcações de pescadores, veleiros, iates e outros tipos de barcos que utilizam poitas como forma de ancoragem. A importância desse trabalho está relacionada principalmente com a segurança e praticidade para os tripulantes e proprietários das embarcações. Em áreas onde não há docas ou píeres disponíveis para atracação direta das embarcações, as poitas se tornam uma opção viável. Uma poita é uma âncora fixa no fundo do mar. As embarcações são então amarradas a essas poitas para permanecerem seguras e estáveis. Além disso, os barcos de apoio desempenham um papel fundamental em situações de emergência ou manutenção. Se houver a necessidade de evacuação rápida de uma embarcação, seja devido a um incêndio, mau tempo ou outro tipo de problema, os barcos de apoio podem ser utilizados para resgatar os tripulantes em segurança. Sem esses barcos de apoio, o acesso seria muito mais complicado e arriscado, ou seja, sempre agrademos a eles.

We go open ocean fishing on the Skeeter ZX22V. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/06/skeeter-zx22v-bay-boat-blitzkrieg-2/ For more boat videos, visit www.boats.com. Off to port Catalina Island was a mere smudge on the horizon, on our starboard side the California coast slid by in a blur, and dead ahead calico bass were waiting to be caught. They wouldn't have long to wait, because the Skeeter ZX22V being captained by Ben Florentino of Coastal Charters boasted 225 Yamaha horses on the transom, and was hauling its load of anxious anglers to the fishing grounds at over 30-mph. If you think that doesn't sound very fast for this rig, you're right—cruising speed is closer to 40-mph and top-end breaks 50. But remember, we were in the open Pacific. In fact, it's a testament to the way this boat is designed and built that we could even think about making our 12 mile run to Florentino's favorite kelp beds with just 22 feet of LOA. Blasting through widely-spaced three foot waves the Skeeter felt rock-solid, thanks to construction touches like a single-piece deck constructed of sandwiched layers of PVC cross-linked foam and fiberglass. Aircraft-grade aluminum ties the stringers and transom together, distributing stress throughout the structure. Hatches—many with full-length piano hinges—are injection-molded to maximize strength while minimizing weight. Aluminum backing plates are laminated into the deck where the console's attached. Build a boat with these techniques on a 20-degree deadrise hull, add in a pair of concave reverse chines, then give it strakes plus a transom set-back, and you get a boat that feels like granite underfoot yet has the grace of a gray-hounding wahoo. As we ate through the Pacific there were no rattles, vibrations, or slams to speak of. You can see what I mean in this video, which was all shot in the open ocean.
