Qué cubre este vídeo

Camille and Jesse sail Stella, a sailboat, 14 nautical miles down the northern coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, searching for surf spots after sheltering overnight in a small lagoon anchorage from an unexpected 35-knot storm.0:27 Pre-departure checks include engine oil, coolant, hose inspection, and fuel level via the Victron screen (128 of 140 liters).3:22 Navigation runs on a Garmin chartplotter and an iPad with Navionics.4:31 Wind shifts from 5 knots to 14 knots during the passage; Camille reefs the main early after spotting cloud formation near land, citing the area's tendency to produce squalls.13:20 The crew tacks out to find pressure, then runs toward the target island at close to 6 knots.15:11 A troll line catches an aku (skipjack tuna) while still under sail; Camille fillets it aboard and the crew joins friends on a neighboring boat for a sashimi and Spanish mackerel barbecue.22:17 The episode also covers a standing policy to sail rather than motor given the global diesel situation, screen protector use to prevent chartplotter delamination in tropical sun, and pre-sail cabin securing to prevent gear shifting on a heel.15:51 Overfishing is noted as a factor limiting catches in coastal Indonesian waters.12:45
