Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the sailboat Yabá navigates the Brazilian coast between Ilha Bela and Paraty while managing heavy swell and shifting winds caused by a cyclone in the Atlantic.▶ 8:15 After departing an anchorage in Ubatuba to avoid high winds, the vessel encounters a fishing net and narrowly misses rocks during a 4 a.m. departure.▶ 3:27 The crew later experiences wind speeds reaching 8.5 knots under two sails before the wind turns northeast, creating significant swell.▶ 5:04 While waiting for weather to stabilize, the crew performs maintenance, including installing a ventilation box in the engine room and mounting a removable windshade in the cockpit.▶ 10:49 The vessel eventually crosses the Tropic of Capricorn, marking the milestone with a ritual.▶ 21:16 The crew attempts to break a perceived fishing curse by baking banana bread to eliminate the presence of raw bananas on board.▶ 27:28 They plan to continue their passage to Paraty once sea conditions improve, aiming for a forecast of lighter winds and reduced swell.
