What this video covers

Tomas and Agus sail their boat from Mayaguana, Bahamas, to West Caicos Island, Turks and Caicos, covering approximately 60 miles on a beam reach.0:38 During the transit, the crew monitors a minor leak in the propeller shaft seal, opting to manage the water ingress manually rather than attempting repairs at sea.1:01 Upon arrival at West Caicos, the boat experiences uncomfortable rolling at anchor because the wind and swell are misaligned.6:24 To stabilize the vessel, the crew rigs a bridle using two lines attached to the anchor chain, adjusting the boat's heading to face the swell directly.6:23 They utilize the guide *The Gentleman's Guide to Passages South* for route planning and anchoring techniques.3:50 As they have not yet cleared customs, they fly the yellow quarantine flag from the starboard shroud.9:34 The crew supplements their provisions by catching a mackerel while underway.5:02
