Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the sailboat Corail navigates a section of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) departing from Georgetown, South Carolina.0:10 During departure, strong currents pinning the boat against the dock necessitate the use of long floating mooring lines to maneuver away safely.0:18 While underway, the crew utilizes a staysail to take advantage of favorable following winds, avoiding the need to use a genoa with a fouled furling drum.3:04 The transit involves passing through several fixed and opening bridges, including the Socatee Bridge, requiring radio communication with bridge operators.12:15 Navigation requires constant vigilance, as the crew experiences a grounding in a shallow area near a golf course where charts indicated sufficient depth; they wait for the rising tide to refloat the vessel.16:51 The day’s passage covers 46 nautical miles in 10 hours, with the crew noting that fuel consumption remains low while running with the current and wind.18:21
