The crew of an ETAC 38 performs multiple engine oil changes to clear seawater contamination before departing Los Cristianos, Tenerife, for a 24-nautical-mile passage to La Gomera.4:19 During the transit, they experience light winds and rely on the engine, eventually reaching 6.5 knots under sail once clear of the island's wind shadow.17:45 Upon arrival at a beach anchorage near a ruined village, they find the site exposed to rolling swell and decide to relocate further south to Santiago to seek shelter from an incoming northerly gale.19:17 They anchor in 9 meters of water over a sandy patch, planning to deploy 50 meters of chain to withstand forecasted 35-knot winds.22:20 The crew utilizes the island's mountainous topography to block the wind, noting that while offshore conditions reach 35 knots, the southern lee remains calm with 10 to 12 knots of breeze.25:28 They emphasize the importance of monitoring local wind acceleration zones between islands to avoid dangerous sea states.38:15
