Javi and the crew of the Velero Regina have arrived at Culatra Island, Portugal, near Faro, following a transatlantic crossing from the Azores.0:29 The island remains largely unchanged, though local authorities have installed mooring buoys that currently see little use due to the availability of free, high-quality anchorage.0:51 The crew plans to remain at Culatra until mid-August to perform maintenance on the boat, which has completed two Atlantic crossings and spent several years in the Caribbean.2:10 Following this stop, they will sail to Ayamonte, where they originally purchased the vessel 13 years ago, before heading to their final destination at the port of Rota, Cádiz.2:30 During the recent crossing, the crew relied on a wind vane steering system after the autopilot failed.3:56 Additionally, the watermaker broke the day before departure, forcing the crew to complete the transit without it.3:27 Repairs for these systems are scheduled during the stay in Culatra.3:43
