Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew departs Matthew Town on Great Inagua Island, Bahamas, for a 235-nautical-mile passage to Port Antonio, Jamaica.11:35 They navigate the gap between Cuba and Haiti, monitoring Navionics charts to avoid a 1.5-knot adverse current and a track separation scheme.15:12 The initial leg features light winds and flat seas, but conditions deteriorate as the vessel encounters a counter-current and unpredictable wave patterns that make steering difficult.20:18 After dark, the crew drops the mainsail and attempts to rig a twin-headsail configuration to handle strengthening winds.24:58 The process proves difficult in the dark, with the spinnaker halyard wrapping around the inner forestay and the boat losing a knot of speed during the 40-minute evolution.26:44 The crew reports significant discomfort from the motion and the challenging sea state while navigating the passage.26:14
