Arthur, sailing his rescued Polynesian double canoe *Mahi*, completes a shakedown cruise from the English Channel to Newport, Belgium, and then to Dieppe, France. During the initial 120-mile passage, the vessel encounters 24-knot winds and moderate sea states, requiring a reef in the mainsail during a night watch.4:02 To improve sail performance and reduce twist, Arthur adjusts the mainsheet attachment points to the beam, following advice from the boat's designer, Hanneke.8:29 The vessel relies on its twin engines for extended periods due to light winds and tidal constraints near Calais and Capgriz, consuming approximately two liters of fuel per hour per engine.19:54 While docked in Newport, Arthur identifies chafe on a block and applies protective tape to the line.27:40 He later recruits a crew member, Ben, to assist with a 100-mile overnight passage to Cherbourg.25:03 The boat’s performance in varying conditions and the reliability of its engines during long motor-sailing stretches provide confidence in the vessel's seaworthiness for coastal cruising.
