The crew of Jibsea sails 373 nautical miles from Cape Breton Island to St. John’s, Newfoundland, across the Cabot Strait.0:17 During the passage, they encounter 16- to 24-knot winds and steep, five- to six-foot wind chop, which causes a section of their canvas enclosure to rip during a reefing maneuver.8:05 The crew manages the conditions by adjusting their course and motor-sailing when the wind dies near a shallow shelf 50 miles offshore.5:05 Upon arrival in Newfoundland, they experience a high concentration of humpback whales near the coast.13:00 They enter St. John’s Harbor through the Narrows, where they dock at a public pier after contacting harbor traffic control.16:35 Because the harbor office is closed on a Sunday, they secure the boat to large industrial cleats and tires, noting the need for boards to protect the hull against the tire fenders.18:00 The crew repairs the torn canvas with black thread and reinforced stitching before exploring the downtown area.19:08
