Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

After nearly three years in Fiji, Max and Ale depart on an 800-mile passage from Fiji to New Caledonia aboard their Beneteau Oceanis 50, Y2K.0:43 Clearance out of Fiji is completed at Danarao before departure.5:04 Motoring to the pass, they encounter standing waves at the exit and stronger-than-forecast conditions immediately offshore — estimated 20–22 knots with confused seas — while the wind instrument fails after taking heavy hits through the pass, eliminating autopilot-wind-vane mode for the entire passage.11:51 Unable to use the windvane autopilot without wind data, Max cannot rig the whisker pole and instead secures the boom with a mainsail preventer rigged to a cleat and the mainsheet.16:15 Conditions deteriorate overnight Thursday: seas build past two meters toward 2.4 meters, a squall forces Max to furl the genoa and head up nearly to a stop under minimal mainsail, making two to three knots until it passes.22:34 Ale suffers seasickness through the rough stretch.21:23 The boat averages six to seven knots under full genoa and one reef, reaching nearly eight knots in the heavier air.23:12 Australia biosecurity costs for two ants found aboard a fellow sailor's boat — 800 dollars for three hours — prompt a pre-arrival cleanliness reminder.20:17 Y2K arrives in New Caledonia Saturday morning in sunshine under sail and motor.29:09 A failed wind instrument can disable autopilot wind-vane steering for an entire offshore passage, making a spare instrument and a plan to climb the mast in port essential preparation.
