Qué cubre este vídeo

A sailing couple transits the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) aboard their sailboat, covering 46 nautical miles in 11 hours under engine power.17:59 The crew navigates through Alligator River, managing a faulty autopilot that requires constant manual intervention when the rudder experiences resistance.13:17 They pass two fixed bridges, confirming clearance by monitoring local tide levels, which remain low enough to ensure safe passage.6:03 Throughout the day, the boat encounters light, head-on winds, necessitating the use of the engine at 1,700 RPM to maintain a speed of approximately 4.8 knots.14:00 The crew struggles with an infestation of large biting flies, attempting to mitigate the nuisance with electric fly swatters and by removing the cockpit bimini to reduce the insects' hiding spots.15:09 The transit concludes with anchoring in a large, open basin at 18:30.16:45 The crew notes that their original plan to sail to Quebec was altered due to poor weather and the challenges of managing the vessel with a two-person crew.10:57
