Qué cubre este vídeo
A family of four aboard the sailboat Sunday transits the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) from St. Augustine, Florida, while navigating around localized thunderstorms and lightning. The crew decides to move from offshore to the ICW to avoid heavy weather and potential sea sickness for the mother, who is breastfeeding and using a half-dose of Dramamine.3:12 During the transit, the crew uses Navionics and downloads "Bob's Tracks" to navigate shallow sections and bridge clearances.12:12 The vessel, which is near its maximum height and draft limits for the ICW, requires the crew to lower the antenna to clear low bridges.12:40 After encountering intense lightning and poor visibility near Matanzas Inlet, the crew anchors in the channel in 1.9 meters of water to wait out a storm cell.21:00 They eventually decide to terminate the day's passage early and anchor for the night rather than pushing forward into further weather.22:16 The experience highlights the necessity of constant chart monitoring and radar use when dodging squalls in restricted ICW channels.
