The crew of the 45-ft catamaran Supernova navigates from St. Vincent to St. Lucia and then to Martinique, managing a series of electronic failures and weather-driven schedule changes. During the transit to St. Lucia, the vessel loses wind, speed, and depth data, forcing the crew to rely on a handheld wind gauge and manual navigation.2:53 Upon arrival in St. Lucia, the crew anchors in 100 feet of water with 275 feet of chain.12:51 They later decide to depart early for Martinique to avoid an incoming wave event, opting to bypass further exploration of St. Lucia to ensure their guests reach flights on time.28:54 In Martinique, the crew encounters a crowded anchorage with over 200 vessels, necessitating careful navigation to find a safe spot.32:09 Throughout the trip, the crew utilizes a staysail to improve performance in light winds and performs stern ties to secure the boat in various Caribbean anchorages.16:13
