Qué cubre este vídeo
During an Atlantic crossing on day 12, the crew of the 43-foot sailboat Jibsea manages close-quarters traffic by adjusting their AIS dangerous target alarm to a 0.5-nautical-mile radius to avoid false alerts from a nearby vessel.0:37 To maintain speed while managing increasing winds, the crew douses their spinnaker before sunset and transitions to a wing-on-wing configuration with one reef in the main and a poled-out headsail.8:03 This setup allows for consistent speeds of 6 to 8 knots through the night.8:53 To address chafe on the boom vang shackle caused by the mainsheet angle, the crew installs a 3mm Dyneema continuous loop to act as a swivel.9:47 The crew also lands a mahi-mahi, processing the fish on a newly repositioned cutting board designed to reduce ergonomic strain.10:39 After running out of fresh water, they use an external generator to power the watermaker while underway.11:26
