¿Qué cubre este video?

The crew of Zephyr prepares for a passage from the Abacos to the United States while navigating the swell generated by Hurricane Ernesto.12:34 Because the storm is producing 7- to 8-foot seas at Whale Cay, the crew opts to anchor at Guana Cay to wait for a weather window.5:39 They plan to clean the boat’s bottom and reorganize provisions to improve trim before attempting the crossing.2:07 The crew evaluates two primary strategies for the transit: enduring a three-day, high-seas passage directly toward their destination or making a shorter, one-day run to the Florida or Georgia coast to utilize the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) while waiting for offshore conditions to stabilize.14:20 During the stop, the crew services a recurring issue with the windlass and uses a Blue Nomad dive system to clean the hull.9:07 The passage planning remains contingent on shifting wind patterns and the dissipation of swell following the hurricane's path toward Bermuda.12:55
