Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the Blue Pearl secures a slip at the marina in San Felipe, Mexico, after failing to find suitable haul-out facilities in Puerto Penasco, San Carlos, Guaymas, or La Paz.1:35 The San Felipe marina accommodates the vessel's size, provides shore power for air conditioning and refrigeration, and permits onboard maintenance work.1:53 The transit to San Felipe involves a 75-nautical-mile passage from the Enchanted Islands, requiring a pre-dawn departure in total darkness.13:15 During the approach to the Enchanted Islands, the crew encounters a shifting shoal that reduces depth to one foot under the keel, forcing an emergency U-turn in 20-knot winds.12:43 Navigation relies entirely on electronic charts via Navionics, highlighting the difficulty of night departures and arrivals in unfamiliar waters.10:07 The crew manages the final docking in San Felipe by preparing lines for both sides of the boat to account for potential last-minute maneuvering changes.18:38 The vessel remains in San Felipe for extended repairs and maintenance.19:33
