Vernon sails his catamaran, Learning By Doing, solo from Thursday Island toward Darwin, Australia, covering approximately 700 miles.0:37 The passage begins in the Torres Strait, where he navigates through a reef system and observes the compulsory pilotage industry for commercial shipping.6:38 He maintains a steady course using a screecher on a broad reach, averaging 6.6 to 7 knots in 8 to 12 knots of wind.10:53 To manage fatigue during the 40-hour transit, he employs a 40-minute alarm cycle for sleep, relying on AIS and radar for collision avoidance.13:25 He secures all deck hatches from the outside before departure to prevent water ingress caused by lines caught under the seals.1:54 Upon reaching his planned stop at Marchinbar Island, he anchors in a remote, potentially unsurveyed area, requiring visual navigation to avoid rocks.21:19 The stop includes a shore excursion to inspect a shipwreck and lighthouse.21:48 Solo catamaran sailing requires a conservative approach to sail configuration and a focus on learning the vessel's specific motion and feedback.25:39
