Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

The Cruising Meraki family — Kate, Mick, and kids Thomas and Bentley — completes a 2,200-nautical-mile passage from Canada down the U.S. coast and the length of Baja California to Cabo San Lucas, then crosses to Isla Isabela, during COVID. The episode reconstructs the journey from salvaged clips after a hard drive failure wiped six months of footage.0:07 Departing San Diego, the crew aborted an initial crossing attempt when the alternator began smoking near the U.S.-Mexico border; Mick repaired it dockside before a second, successful departure.1:48 The 12-hour run to Ensenada went smoothly; Mexican check-in required a health inspection aboard, then a port captain visit and a van transfer across town to immigration.6:34 From Ensenada, each subsequent leg — to Turtle Bay (Bahia Tortugas), Asuncion, Bahia Santa Maria, and Cabo — ran roughly two nights.7:44 The wind vane autopilot handled messy following seas overnight; a lunar eclipse occurred mid-passage.10:07 The Mexican Navy intercepted the boat in a panga near Bahia Santa Maria, a routine check.21:53 Pacific bonito caught en route proved better eating than expected.17:08 Cabo offered 30–32°C bathtub-warm water, clear anchorage, and the famous rock arch.26:35 The crossing to Isla Isabela — described as Mexico's Galápagos — was rough with beam seas and variable winds, but the anchorage delivered constant whale activity audible through the hull.28:10 Provision well in Ensenada; resupply options along the Baja coast are extremely limited.31:58
