Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

Catalpa sails four days from El Salvador to Costa Rica's Bahia del Coco with the autopilot failed, forcing hand-steering for the final approach.0:35 The passage turns chaotic: a heavy knockdown while raising the mainsail scatters breakfast across the cabin, a bag goes overboard and has to be winched back aboard using a halyard, fishing lines tangle, and the crew catches a bonito and a mahi-mahi.7:36 Sarah, who admits to rarely hand-steering in ten years of liveaboard sailing, takes the helm in 30 knots while Lee fillets the fish.4:16 The anchorage at Bahia del Coco is rolly on a monohull; the crew moves overnight after a nearby boat takes a mooring ball too close.12:40 Checking into Costa Rica requires visiting three offices — Immigration, the Port Captain, and Customs at Liberia airport — in that order.13:29 The Port Captain alone requires three copies of every document, including three copies of each of five passports.15:18 Immigration is a five-minute walk from the dinghy landing at the river mouth.17:32 The airport run costs $2 each way by bus, versus $100 US return by taxi.19:05 Navionics shows office locations ashore. The Olifly eSIM app provides data connectivity once off the boat.13:24 Total check-in cost, excluding the bus fare, was nothing.19:37
