Sailing La Vagabonde · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

La Vagabonde sails north through the Philippines toward Karon, navigating unmarked reef that Navionics flags as a blanket shallow zone around Linkapan, requiring visual piloting in good light.7:53 Wind accelerating around the islands forces two reefs; Riley climbs into the sail bag to set the reefing hook, a system the crew has debated replacing since the start of the voyage but decides to keep.7:17 A fouled paddle wheel — clogged with crustaceans — was causing false apparent and true wind speed readings; Elayna scrapes it clean with a GoPro housing.28:37 The crew installs a replacement staysail and furling drum after the original staysail, drum, and tack line were destroyed in a 50-knot gust crossing the South China Sea; the replacement is a heavier, cruising-oriented sail.39:05 A typhoon threat prompts a decision to press north toward Japan rather than retreat south.33:33 Lenny suffers an allergic reaction — facial swelling over more than an hour — after eating a biscuit containing probable nuts or sesame seeds ashore; the swelling never reached his tongue and no EpiPen was used.29:19 The crew anchors off Neckpan Beach and later Karon, both in the Philippines, in clear, fish-rich water.28:22 Fouled paddle wheels produce unreliable wind instrument data and should be checked after any extended anchorage.
