Qué cubre este vídeo
On day 16 of an Atlantic crossing heading west, Jade Evans describes conditions that have been consistently rolly and squally, leaving the crew sleep-deprived and mentally worn down.▶ 26:38 Guest Ayana is aboard, and the passage is being pushed to completion partly so she can reach her own boat by Christmas.▶ 13:35 The crew jibes to correct course from southwest to west-west, moving the jibe preventer to the new leeward side.▶ 0:32 Jade spots the headsail has slipped out of its lower track — a problem that would require dropping the sail to fix — and discusses rigging a soft shackle to reduce the load on a side-loaded shackle.▶ 2:44 The engine starts on day 16 to motor-sail the final stretch, though the alternator shows irregular RPM behavior.▶ 13:02 Jade walks through the full ditch-kit setup: a six-person self-inflating life raft in the stern cabinet, an oversized ditch bag with food, water, three first-aid kits, a floating flag, and an Iridium satellite communicator, plus a Starlink Mini mounted nearby.▶ 5:06 A corroded zipper on the ditch bag was replaced with a salvaged pull, and a knife is now attached outside so the bag can be cut open inside the raft.▶ 5:23 Sponsor Fluity portable battery banks are presented as a redundant power source for the life raft scenario.▶ 10:17 Seasickness patches worn too long left the crew disoriented; day 16 is the first day all three feel recovered.▶ 18:19
