The solo sailor departs Skagen, Denmark, for a 30-nautical-mile passage across the Kattegat to Østerbyhavn on the island of Læsø.4:27 The transit occurs in 4–5 meters per second westerly winds, providing favorable conditions for the boat, which maintains an average speed of over 5 knots on a broad reach.8:02 Lacking a functional autopilot or reliable rudder lock, the sailor manages the helm manually, occasionally compromising on sail trim to maintain control.5:58 Safety protocols during the solo crossing include staying clipped into the boat while on deck and keeping fenders deployed.8:23 Upon arrival at Østerbyhavn, the sailor plans a two-night stay to wait out stronger winds forecast for the following day.9:29 The stop offers an authentic atmosphere with local fishing vessels and fewer transient sailboats compared to Vesterby.9:22 Shifting from a high-pressure schedule toward Bornholm to a more relaxed pace allows for a more sustainable solo sailing experience.0:33
