Qué cubre este vídeo

The 40-foot yacht Avanti departs Fiji for Tanna Island, Vanuatu, on a 500-nautical-mile passage.1:26 The crew faces unpredictable Pacific weather, including 15-to-28-knot gusts and a short-period beam swell that necessitates three reefs in the main and a reefed genoa.4:46 Navionics charts prove inaccurate for reef navigation during a night exit from Fiji, forcing the crew to maintain a constant watch.3:59 After three days, the sea state settles, and the vessel slows to four knots to time a daylight arrival at Port Resolution.7:24 Because Port Resolution is not a standard port of entry, the crew secures prior email authorization from authorities before arrival.9:19 Customs and immigration officials clear the vessel at anchor, requiring the crew to travel to Lenakel to pay fees and obtain local currency.10:29 The transit concludes with the crew anchored in the rustic village of Port Resolution, preparing to visit the nearby Mount Yasur volcano.8:51
