Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Sailing off an anchor requires patience and coordination between the helm and the windlass operator to catch the wind on the desired tack. On *Adventure Can't Wait*, the crew initiates a tack while the windlass operator pulls in chain as it goes slack.1:41 Once the mainsail fills, the boat moves forward, allowing for the final retrieval of the anchor. The crew practices this technique in light winds to avoid relying on the diesel engine.2:51 To set the anchor, they drift backward while paying out chain, then use the engine in reverse at 1500 RPM and 2000 RPM to ensure the Rocna anchor is buried in the sand.11:36 They secure the chain with two snubbers using a camel hitch to relieve tension on the windlass.10:16 The crew also explores the Santa Rosalia de Mulege Mission in Baja California and navigates a shallow estuary in their dinghy, nearly exhausting their fuel supply during a return trip in rising winds.13:48
