Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
A crew preparing for a 3,300-nautical-mile Pacific crossing from El Salvador to French Polynesia uses PredictWind to model departure dates and route options.▶ 1:02 The software simulates wind speed, direction, and potential weather hazards, such as thunderstorms, to optimize the passage.▶ 1:44 For a planned April 2nd departure, the model predicts a 19-day transit with 56% downwind sailing and 42% reaching.▶ 3:39 The crew maintains safety during the 20-to-30-day passage by alternating two-to-three-hour shifts.▶ 4:15 When offshore and clear of shipping lanes, they supplement these shifts with 30-minute sleep intervals.▶ 5:17 To ensure safety during these rests, the crew monitors radar up to 24 miles and uses AIS data to track commercial vessels up to 100 miles away.▶ 5:06 They verify the closest point of approach for all identified targets and set a 30-minute alarm to ensure constant vigilance, even when the autopilot is engaged.▶ 8:24
