A 42-mile coastal passage from Port Stanley to Palakulo Bay, Vanuatu, tests the crew’s ability to navigate trade wind conditions and coral-strewn anchorages.1:34 With southeast winds forecast at 15 to 25 knots, the crew avoids the exposed anchorage outside Luganville, opting for the protected waters of Palakulo Bay to avoid funneling winds.2:46 During the transit, the crew practices heaving-to in open water to evaluate the boat's stability under a double-reefed mainsail alone.13:22 The maneuver successfully maintains a stable position, allowing the crew to rest in rougher conditions.15:23 The passage concludes with a visual approach into the bay, relying on sunlight and a bow lookout to identify sandy patches amidst reef and rock.19:48 Future plans involve provisioning in Luganville before sailing to Ambrym to observe traditional land diving, followed by a southward route toward Port Vila to optimize the angle for the prevailing trade winds before departing for New Caledonia or Australia.27:58 Heaving-to on a mainsail alone provides a viable, stable resting position for a cruising boat in moderate trade wind conditions.17:14
