Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

On day 23 of their first Pacific passage, Steve Dunlap and Meghan Fabulous aboard the catamaran Some Tuesday spot the Gunboat 80 sailing yacht Agave on AIS in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.0:52 Nine days had passed since they had seen any other vessel.0:49 Steve deliberately closes the CPA to under three miles, then hails Agave on VHF, and the two crews arrange a sail-by wave.0:29 Agave had departed the Galapagos the previous Tuesday after a rough start in the doldrums with shifty winds; Some Tuesday left El Salvador after sailing south from Los Angeles in December.2:05 Both boats are bound for Nuku Hiva, Marquesas.3:23 The Gunboat 80 is flying a large spinnaker showing signs of fatigue with 800 miles still to run, and one of its sails is already out of service.3:12 Steve identifies the Gunboat 80 as an exceptionally rare performance catamaran — "the white whale" — and alters course under Genoa to close the distance after getting permission from Agave's skipper.12:33 The encounter captures the psychological weight of prolonged isolation at sea and the outsized lift that brief human contact provides on a long offshore passage.
