Qué cubre este vídeo

A 30,000-pound full-keel boat tests a used symmetric spinnaker in light wind conditions, averaging 3 to 3.5 knots with only 3 to 4 knots of apparent wind.1:09 The crew flies the spinnaker without a pole, finding the sail balances the rig well and allows for consistent movement on a beam reach without relying on the engine.11:26 The vessel, *Red Aviva*, buddy boats with a friend’s boat while maintaining a steady course.3:38 The crew evaluates the performance of the sail to determine future needs for light-wind gear, such as a mizzen staysail or a code zero.11:16 Following the sail, the crew cleans the hull to remove growth accumulated during a month-long stay in the United States, noting that the bottom paint is generally holding up well except for areas where the original primer remained.18:42 The crew plans to reach Escondido to secure a mooring and rent a car for a trip to La Paz.17:37
