Qué cubre este vídeo
Alex and Cory navigate the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) toward St. Augustine and the St. Johns River while preparing to sell their current sailboat. During the transit, they encounter a bridge tender who mandates furling the sails for safety, a regulation they confirm applies to vessels under power or sail when passing through drawbridges.2:35 To maintain speed against strong currents in the St. Johns River, the crew utilizes river-rafting techniques, specifically "eddy hopping" along the riverbanks to find favorable counter-currents.14:34 They anchor temporarily to wait for slack tide before proceeding.15:47 The couple plans to move the boat to Green Cove Springs for storage, marking the end of their time with the vessel as they transition to a larger, more stable boat.11:38 Throughout the journey, they manage daily heat, insect pressure, and the logistical challenge of owning two sailboats in different countries.18:41
