Qué cubre este vídeo
An Alberg 30 sails from Avalon on Catalina Island toward Los Angeles in 7 to 10 knots of wind, despite a PredictWind forecast predicting only 2 knots.1:10 The crew initially flies a 155% gennaker, which they recently repaired with sail tape and stitching, but they switch to a 90% working jib as wind speeds increase.1:35 The boat maintains a speed of 4.8 to 5 knots with the working jib and a new full-batten mainsail, allowing the crew to sail without the engine.2:08 While transiting the channel, the crew uses the macerator pump to empty the holding tanks, noting that Avalon harbor officials require a dye tablet test to ensure no sewage is discharged into the harbor.4:15 The crew observes two fast-moving military vessels while monitoring wind data from Sailflow, which reports 11 to 16 knots near Hurricane Gulch.7:36
