Dunkeln sails solo from Sydney to Lord Howe Island and then toward Queensland, facing severe winter storms and equipment failures. To enter the World Heritage site of Lord Howe Island, he must provide proof of a clean hull and undergo a strict biosecurity process.0:59 During the 700-kilometer passage, a faulty bolt causes the wind vane to detach in heavy seas, requiring an emergency repair.1:32 Upon arrival, the anchorage proves roll-heavy, and three low-pressure systems force him to dismantle his wind generator to prevent electrical surges.8:58 Departing the island, he navigates a narrow, reef-lined exit in five-meter swells.11:57 The subsequent leg toward Queensland involves beating into 25-to-35-knot winds, causing the genoa to jam and a shackle on the jib to fail.12:46 With the boat pitching violently, he cannot climb the mast to clear the rigging, forcing him to deploy a smaller spare jib from the forepeak.13:21 Persistent seasickness and water ingress further complicate the passage until he reaches the calmer waters of Lady Musgrave Atoll.16:55
