Qué cubre este vídeo

The crew of the catamaran Supernova encounters three waterspouts while anchored near the entrance to the Panama Canal.14:01 After observing the funnels descend from dark clouds toward the water, the sailors decide to delay their planned departure for the San Blas Islands to avoid the localized squalls.14:58 The following morning, they attempt to recalibrate their autopilot, but the process fails because the boat's speed-through-water sensor is non-functional.18:09 They proceed with a 20-mile coastal passage under manual steering and full sail, navigating through a congested anchorage of large cargo ships.18:50 During the transit, wind speeds increase from 10 knots to 22 knots, prompting the crew to reef the mainsail.24:51 When the wind subsequently drops to 12 knots, they shake out the reef to maintain speed.25:04 Throughout the passage, the crew secures their cat, Coconut, in a harness within the cockpit.22:04
