The crew of the 50-foot catamaran Supernova navigates the coastal waters of Alaska, managing electrical system failures and challenging shallow-water passages. After persistent alternator issues leave the vessel reliant on solar power, the crew purchases a portable generator in Wrangell to support their electronics and induction cooktop.13:54 They attempt a shortcut through the poorly charted Dry Straits at high tide, nearly running aground with only 0.5 meters of clearance beneath the hull.20:37 The journey continues toward LeConte Glacier, where the crew maneuvers through a dense field of icebergs, requiring careful steering to avoid hull damage.24:36 They successfully reach the glacier face, documenting the approach with a drone before tour boats arrive.25:46 Throughout the trip, the crew balances remote exploration, including bear spotting in Vixen Inlet and foraging for wild berries, with the practical demands of maintaining a liveaboard vessel in a high-latitude environment. Relying on local knowledge and high-tide windows for shallow passages carries significant risk of grounding.
