Qué cubre este vídeo
Juliano, a sailor who experienced a total loss of his O'day 23-2, the *Conquista*, off the coast of Vitória, Brazil, details his recovery and transition to long-distance cruising.25:09 During a 2004 passage from Vitória toward Abrolhos, the *Conquista* capsized in moderate winds and heavy swell, leaving the crew trapped in an air pocket within the cabin before they successfully escaped to the cockpit.16:08 Following the wreck, Juliano struggled with the psychological aftermath and difficulty finding work in the maritime industry until he secured a position as a deckhand for Vilfredo Schirmann on the vessel *Aysô*.34:45 This opportunity led to a career in boat maintenance and subsequent ocean crossings, including a transatlantic voyage as a first mate on a 57-ft Veneto.37:21 These experiences shaped his preference for robust, classic-style sailboats with skeg-protected rudders over modern, lightweight designs.38:44 He emphasizes the importance of structural integrity and minimal windage in the cockpit for offshore safety, noting that excessive solar arrays and biminis can compromise steering control in heavy following seas.59:42
