Ever wondered what’s hidden beneath the floorboards of a sailboat? 🤔 In this episode, we’re stepping just ahead of the saloon into the guest area of Vela. Beneath your feet lies a network of essential systems that keep life on board running smoothly: 🔹 Thru-hulls: - One for discharging the holding tank. - A water intake for the toilet and our new washdown pump. 🔹 Shower drain pump: - Pumps out the water from your onboard shower, keeping things dry. 🚿 🔹 Depth and speed transducers: - Telling us how fast we’re going and how deep the waters are. 🌊 🔹 Forward-looking sonar: - A lifesaver for spotting shallow waters ahead, helping us navigate safely into hidden coves and anchorages. 🛟 It’s amazing how many essential systems are tucked away down here. Had you imagined that so many of the things we use daily are hidden beneath the floorboards? 🌍 🎵 Music by Sergio Prosvirini from Pixabay #YouTubeShorts #Explore #TravelVlog #Vloggers #DailyLife #ChristmasCalendar #Vlogmas #ChristmasOnBoard #Beneteau44cc #Sailing #Liveaboard #lifeatsea
