Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

The crew of the electric-powered sailboat Uma departs Tromsø, Norway, for a passage toward Svalbard, navigating through 30- to 40-knot winds and short, choppy seas.1:10 To avoid the worst of a low-pressure system, the crew adjusts their course from a westerly heading to a more northerly, downwind route.1:28 During the initial 36 hours, the vessel maintains an average speed of 7 knots, with bursts up to 8.5 knots.14:20 The new propeller system allows for effective hydro-regeneration, producing approximately 500 watts of power while underway.14:38 The crew manages the heavy conditions by dropping the mainsail and sailing under headsail alone, eventually reefing the headsail to improve autopilot performance and vessel control.2:18 Despite the challenging start, which includes a bout of seasickness, the crew settles into a six-hour watch rotation.5:29 They report difficulty maintaining orientation due to the constant daylight of the midnight sun, which circles the horizon rather than setting.18:31
