Nova Vita, a cruising sailboat, completes a passage from Torshaven, Faroe Islands, to Balta Sound, Shetland Islands.17:55 The crew maintains a three-hour watch rotation, navigating light winds between 5 and 16 knots.9:16 During the first night, the crew reefs the main and head sail to stabilize the boat against increasing swell.8:35 On the second day, light winds necessitate motor-sailing to maintain progress.12:14 The vessel rounds the northern tip of the Shetland Islands, passing Muckle Flugga lighthouse and Outstack.13:46 To avoid strong tide rips, the crew maintains a three-mile distance from the coast before entering Balta Sound.18:12 Upon arrival at 00:45, the crew identifies fish farms and existing moorings that block their preferred anchorage, eventually anchoring in seven meters of water over sand in a secondary bay.17:46 The crew utilizes the RYA SafeTrx app for tidal planning and navigation throughout the transit.
