Tom and Anissia, sailing in Vanuatu, perform maintenance on their teak deck in Gaspard Bay before departing for Ambrym.0:17 Tom replaces approximately 30 teak bungs, removing corroded screws, filling the holes with epoxy, and installing new bungs to ensure a watertight seal.1:27 The crew prepares for a 16-nautical-mile passage, expecting 15-knot winds and a 0.7-meter swell.11:52 Despite these favorable forecasts, the transit between the islands results in severe, short, confused seas that cause extreme seasickness for Anissia and force the boat to slow to 1.8 knots.16:02 Tom engages the engine at 1,200 RPM to maintain speed and stability through the turbulence.18:36 The crew attributes the difficult conditions to underestimating the local sea state and the Venturi effect within the channel.19:52 Upon arriving at Ambrym, they anchor in clear water and meet a local resident named Francis.17:47 The experience highlights the importance of taking anti-nausea medication before departure and never underestimating short passages in island channels.16:44
