Paul and Sheryl Shard depart the Azores on a 1,200-mile passage to the Netherlands aboard their Orion 49, completing an Atlantic Circle of roughly 11,600 miles in under a year.▶ 0:01 Crew member Doug joins for the crossing.▶ 1:06 Fog in the English Channel reduces visibility to 30 yards at times; Paul monitors a 6-mile radar overlay alongside AIS, slows the boat, and uses a spotlight that the fog swallows entirely.▶ 3:32 A ship passes less than one mile off the beam with no lights visible.▶ 4:48 The transcript covers collision regulations in detail: Rule 13 overtaking situations, CPA interpretation on radar, and the obligation to hold course and speed until an overtaking vessel is past and clear.▶ 9:59 AIS scale distortion on a zoomed-out plotter makes traffic appear dangerously crowded when ships are actually well separated.▶ 11:40 The Orion 49 stops at Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight to top up two 400-liter fuel tanks at roughly $7.50 per US gallon before heading directly to the Netherlands.▶ 6:02 Dover's ferry traffic and North Sea shipping lanes, wind farms, and a shipping roundabout near Amsterdam add further complexity.▶ 9:13 Fog lifts for the final 50 miles to Friesland.▶ 14:54 The boat returns to builder Anxail Yachts in Mackham for one-year warranty work and hybrid drive troubleshooting.▶ 7:04 Radar is more reliable than AIS alone in dense fog because it shows targets AIS misses.▶ 11:07
