Qué cubre este vídeo
On day eight of an Atlantic Ocean crossing, the crew of the sailing vessel Ewa encounters another boat, Lillerum, while navigating a complex current system.1:23 To maximize speed, the crew tacks through a curved, snake-like ocean current, which they compare to a human conveyor belt at an airport.3:04 The crew reports that two out of three boats they are in contact with have experienced autopilot failures, specifically electrical issues within the control unit that require returning the hardware to Raymarine.7:02 During the passage, the crew discusses their approach to managing dogs on board, noting that they abandoned plastic grass mats in favor of deck-based relief to prevent plastic pollution.19:49 They also address the challenges of night sailing, noting that while large sea states in the dark can be unsettling, the lights of other vessels are easier to spot at night than during the day.27:29 The crew confirms they do not intend to sail indefinitely, citing interests in future projects like building a bush plane and overlanding.34:40
