Qué cubre este vídeo
Beto Toledo sails solo from Rijeka, Croatia, to Trieste, Italy, covering the distance over ten days to avoid forecasted 35-to-45-knot gusts.0:49 After refueling in Opatija, he anchors in Sveta, where he encounters a windlass failure while retrieving 75 meters of chain in 15 meters of water.3:12 The chain piles up in the chain locker and jams the windlass with 8 meters remaining, forcing him to engage the autopilot and manually haul the chain while the boat drifts in deeper water.3:34 He continues toward Pula in light winds, motors through a calm, and eventually beats into a northwest wind.5:48 After finding Rovinj crowded with moorings, he anchors in the Ileso cove.6:13 He clears customs in Umag, stops in Slovenia to wait for favorable weather, and completes the final leg to Marina San Giusto in Trieste.6:42 Testing the windlass and chain stowage before anchoring in deep water prevents mid-maneuver mechanical failures.
