Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
A solo sailor navigates a project catamaran, *Mahi*, from A Coruña to a sheltered anchorage near Cape Finisterre, Spain, while preparing for an Atlantic crossing.▶ 0:04 Before the passage, the sailor scrubs the hulls at anchor to remove barnacles and seaweed, noting that the cleaning significantly improves light-wind performance.▶ 10:32 The route requires passing Cape Finisterre, a headland notorious for strong katabatic winds, but the sailor maintains a wide berth of approximately four miles to avoid the worst conditions.▶ 15:53 During the 44-mile transit, wind speeds remain light, averaging 4.1 knots, before increasing to roughly 15–20 knots after rounding the cape.▶ 19:24 The sailor manages the boat solo using an autopilot and Navionics for navigation, executing a controlled jibe to adjust for the wind shift.▶ 15:21 The passage concludes with a successful engine-assisted entry into a protected anchorage.▶ 17:29 Regular hull maintenance and conservative sail plans allow for manageable solo handling of the catamaran in varying wind conditions.▶ 25:01
