A 12-meter steel sailboat and two backpackers race from Cascais to Sines, Portugal, to compare travel speeds between sailing and hitchhiking.Watch The crew sails the coastal route via Sesimbra, encountering variable winds that peak at 30 knots.9:24 While the sailors use a 50-year-old manual to interpret sea states—identifying "steep wind" conditions where waves begin to break—they maintain 7 to 8 knots of speed under full sail, noting that the steel hull and aluminum mast handle conditions that would require reefing on older wooden vessels.14:09 Meanwhile, the backpackers navigate land routes using trains, ferries, and hitchhiking, occasionally detouring through restricted areas like golf courses.7:01 Upon arrival in Sines, the sailboat crew anchors near the harbor mole to shelter from heavy swell.16:28 The backpackers reach the destination first, though the sailors argue that the sailing route covered more distance.18:58 The experience confirms that while hitchhiking may offer faster transit times, sailing provides a different, more challenging mode of travel.
