Qué cubre este vídeo

Leo Goolden is sailing east from Clinton Bay, Panama, toward the Santa Marta area of Colombia, positioning for a future turn north into the Caribbean trade winds.0:30 He maintains a position 50 miles west of Cartagena, navigating a sheltered zone to avoid being pushed downwind toward Jamaica or Cuba.0:16 The engine has run for 80% of the passage due to light winds, but a fuel starvation issue forced a three-hour repair at sea.0:46 High vacuum gauge readings led to a filter change, but the engine stalled until Goolden cleared a sawdust blockage from the fuel manifold, likely introduced during the boat's construction.1:55 He manages fatigue with 10-to-15-minute sleep intervals, supplemented by AIS and radar alarms.2:50 Goolden must now decide whether to turn north immediately to conserve diesel or motor another 100 miles east to improve his wind angle for the final leg.4:51 He keeps his AIS active for security while transiting toward Cuba.4:11
