Qué cubre este vídeo
A 38-ft sailboat departs Lanzarote, Spain, bound for the Iberian Peninsula with a planned stop in Madeira to address mechanical issues.0:06 The crew initially motors for 30 hours in light winds, averaging 4 knots, before encountering a front that brings 28-knot gusts and speeds exceeding 7 knots.11:20 During the passage, the autopilot on a companion vessel, piloted by Samuel, fails with a "no compass" error.15:32 The crew attempts to rendezvous at sea to transfer a spare compass via a 50-meter line, but the plan proves unfeasible.16:02 Consequently, both vessels divert to Porto Santo, Madeira, to conduct repairs.16:49 The transit involves managing sail configurations, including using a reefed mainsail and staysail to stabilize the boat in swell, and relying on weather routing provided via an inReach device to navigate around windless zones.5:52 The crew plans to haul the boat in Porto Santo to clean the hull and perform maintenance on the underwater gear.17:06
