Pizza baking in oven aboard sailing yacht at sea
What this video covers
Sailing Zatara's crew makes pizza from scratch in the galley during a 186-mile passage to Dampier, Australia, with 30 hours remaining and the boat running at six knots.0:13 Jack Whitaker assembles the pizza on the countertop — sauce, pepperoni, and toppings — and bakes it two slices at a time in the oven.0:39 The result draws the whole crew below. Night-watch segments show the passage conditions: main up solo, then two motors running, then the jib deployed when wind builds to 15 knots and boat speed reaches eight knots over ground.4:24 The moon is bright enough to read by. At 80 miles from land, internet is marginal but present.4:08 A 300-metre tanker passes one mile off in the dark, visible only as two lights — a detail Jack uses to illustrate how little you can see at sea.7:05 The crew spots an unidentified red light in the sky that disappears without explanation.6:52 The passage ends at anchor, with Jack dropping the sail in daylight on arrival at Dampier.6:30
