Wik and Rox, sailing their boat Oceanaire | Wik & Rox, transit from the east side of Lipari in the Aeolian Islands toward Vulcano.0:41 While anchored off Vulcano, the crew hikes to the island's crater, encountering steep, eroded trails and sulfurous vents.7:17 During the excursion, wind speeds increase unexpectedly, forcing a difficult return trip in their dinghy against waves.9:51 Upon returning to Oceanaire | Wik & Rox, the crew attempts their first proper sail, but encounters mechanical failures with the rigging.10:08 The Genoa proves difficult to unfurl due to old, stiff lines, and the in-mast furling mainsail jams because of a faulty outhaul car and worn bearings in the furling mechanism.10:35 Despite these issues, the boat reaches speeds of 8.5 knots while towing the dinghy before a line snaps, necessitating a reef.11:22 The crew subsequently orders replacement lines and furling parts, while cleaning and greasing all blocks and bearings to restore functionality.10:50
