Qué cubre este vídeo
A crew of four sails a 22-foot Super 22 sloop, the *Buenos Vientos*, from the Centro Naval de Olivos in Argentina to Punta del Este, Uruguay. The 15-day coastal passage includes stops in Colonia, Riachuelo, and Montevideo. During the transit, the crew experiences autopilot failure, which they repair mid-voyage. They practice night watches and navigation to build experience for future offshore sailing. The vessel relies on its engine when wind speeds drop, necessitating careful fuel management due to the boat's small tank capacity. Upon arrival in Montevideo, the crew completes mandatory customs and port entry paperwork. The final leg to Punta del Este involves navigating waters where the Río de la Plata meets the Atlantic Ocean, a location marked by a visible change in water density and salinity. The trip serves as a training exercise for the crew’s long-term goal of circumnavigation. Practical experience with night watches and managing port entry bureaucracy provides essential preparation for extended offshore passages.
