Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Departing Géroliménas on the southern Peloponnese, Captain Ziane sails roughly 7–8 hours north toward Pylos (Pilos) in light downwind conditions of 6–8 knots, making 4–4.5 knots boat speed under sail.0:04 The passage turns rough in the final stretch: headwinds combine with large swells and cross-currents at the port entrance, forcing an early stop at Pylos rather than pressing on.8:51 The port itself is an abandoned marina — free to use but without water or electricity — with a notoriously tight, current-swept entrance where two channels converge and create confused seas.10:16 An overnight stop at Grevataki Bay before the passage was disrupted by thunderstorms that revealed leaking portlights.5:32 At Pylos, two saltwater hand pumps that had been leaking despite repair attempts are replaced with identical new units sourced locally for €65 each (€130 for the pair), restoring the ability to wash dishes with seawater and conserve freshwater.12:40 The skipper also notes a planned crossing toward Italy in one to two days, pending a weather window with smaller swell.9:28 Replacing failing pumps outright rather than repeatedly attempting field repairs saves time on a passage.
