Qué cubre este vídeo

Luke and Adam sail across the Pacific Ocean toward French Polynesia, reaching the halfway point at three weeks at sea.1:44 The crew maintains a steady pace of 5 to 6 knots using a full genoa and mainsail, though they occasionally deploy a spinnaker or twin headsails depending on wind conditions.3:27 During a 25-day stretch of 20- to 27-knot winds and 2.5-meter beam seas, the boat experiences significant rolling, causing the crew to struggle with sleep and physical fatigue from bracing in their bunks.19:34 To improve ventilation while keeping mosquitoes out, the crew fabricates custom mosquito nets and sliding washboards for the skylights and companionway.6:34 They monitor hull fouling, noting the accumulation of green algae and young goose barnacles.5:23 Despite the isolation, the crew maintains a strict no-alcohol policy while on passage.22:29 The transit continues with the crew managing daily tasks, fishing for mahi-mahi, and clearing flying fish that land on deck, as they track their progress toward their destination.13:14
