Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
A 38-foot sailboat, *Khalifa*, transits from Grenada to Martinique, navigating through the Grenadines while managing mechanical failures and security concerns. During the passage, the crew experiences a recurring failure of the boiler’s 6-bar pressure relief valve, which causes freshwater to leak into the bilge when the pressurized water pump is active.1:42 To bypass the faulty valve, the owner disconnects the cold water feed to the boiler and installs a temporary plug on the return line, sacrificing hot water to maintain the integrity of the freshwater system until reaching Martinique.2:48 The crew encounters 36-knot winds while anchored at Mayreau, resulting in the anchor dragging multiple times and a near-collision with another yacht.34:09 To avoid potential theft in Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent, the crew clears customs in Bequia and plans an overnight passage to reach Martinique.21:20 The vessel maintains speeds of approximately 8 knots under sail, utilizing favorable winds to bypass intermediate ports.14:03
