Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο

A passage from the United States toward Colombia turns into a two-and-a-half-day upwind slog when forecast winds of 22 knots reach 30–40 knots and back onto the nose, forcing the crew of the liveaboard sailboat Escapade to tack repeatedly around unmarked reefs and shallow bommies with as little as 4 metres under the keel.9:08 Janaye, Jase, and newest crew member Tom stand rotating graveyard shifts — 2 a.m. to 6 a.m. — while the boat bashes through short, sharp wind swell heeled at roughly 15 degrees, speed dropping from five knots to three on each wave.1:34 Sails are reefed to a first in the main and a second in the genoa.1:48 The crew notes that high-pressure-system shifts near the Bahamas can quickly push winds stronger and more southerly than forecast.2:46 A large wahoo is caught mid-passage on a lure after a previous fish bends the hook.4:20 Sleep deprivation, seasickness, and delirium set in by day three.14:37 The passage ends with an unplanned stop in the Bahamas — specifically Hog Key, noted for the Hog Key Yacht Club, cruiser community, spearfishing, and lobster season — after arriving a full day later than planned.18:07
