Sailing Nova Vita · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

Nova Vita departs St. Pierre, Martinique, for a passage to Roseau, Dominica, motor-sailing in light winds ranging from 5 to 16 knots. The crew utilizes the transit to conduct the first sea trial of a new South Atlantic self-steering system. After installing the unit on the wheel adapter and tensioning the lines, the wind vane maintains a steady course throughout the crossing despite variable wind speeds and minimal swell. Upon arrival in Dominica, the crew secures a mooring buoy near the cruise ship terminal after coordinating with a local contact via WhatsApp. The vessel displays a courtesy flag and a Q flag while awaiting customs and immigration clearance. The wind vane performs reliably under light-air conditions, successfully steering the boat for the duration of the passage.
