Qué cubre este vídeo
Javi sails the Regina on the third day of an Atlantic crossing from the Azores toward the Iberian Peninsula.▶ 0:16 The vessel is currently close-hauled in 12 knots of wind, maintaining full sail despite significant heel to maximize speed.▶ 1:02 The crew anticipates a two-meter swell developing by the following day.▶ 0:16 To avoid 33-knot gusts on the beam near Cabo de San Vicente, Javi maintains a specific heading of 90 to 92 degrees to ensure the eventual arrival winds arrive from the stern or quarter.▶ 2:39 The strategy involves reefing the main and partially furling the genoa or deploying the staysail as the wind increases near the Portuguese coast.▶ 3:19 The vessel utilizes a cockpit enclosure to maintain comfort in cooler temperatures.▶ 3:24 Real-time tracking and weather data for the passage are available via PredictWind and Garmin links on the channel page.▶ 4:32
