Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the 34-foot sailboat Wanderling repairs a leaking PVC dinghy in the Exumas, Bahamas, using a sealant adhesive after their supply of contact cement dries out.2:25 The dinghy, which resembles a Highfield model, suffers from failing seams due to tropical heat and improper adhesive curing.3:09 Following the repair, the crew sails 17 miles from White Cay to the anchorage at Rat Cay, navigating a narrow, current-swept cut.6:06 They encounter steep, choppy seas caused by a northeast wind opposing the tidal flow.6:28 The crew coordinates their passage with another vessel, Le und Lou, before snorkeling in shallow bays to observe sharks and sea turtles.6:25 They later transit five miles to Staniel Cay, timing their arrival at a local underwater cave system for low tide to allow for easier access.13:54 The crew plans to remain in the area to resupply and wait for a shift in wind conditions before continuing their route.14:26
