Qué cubre este vídeo

Chris and Karmen sail their Beneteau 57, *Vanishing Point*, from the mainland to Avalon on Catalina Island to attend the annual Catalina Wine Mixer.0:01 They depart on a Thursday to secure a mooring ball in the crowded harbor, noting that most moorings are privately owned and often reserved by owners during high-traffic events.2:16 During the transit across the San Pedro Channel, the engine bogs down, suggesting the boat snagged kelp or debris on the rudder or propeller.9:30 The crew successfully launches and recovers a drone to capture footage despite calm winds and light traffic.10:40 After the event, they navigate a tight departure from the mooring field, maneuvering between closely packed vessels and kayakers.16:41 The trip concludes with a transit toward Long Beach to anchor at Island White.20:29 The vessel, a former participant in the 2017 Rolex Sydney to Hobart race, remains in good condition, and the owners maintain a surplus of specialized Hydraline propeller zincs discovered during their travels.4:47
