The crew of Oceanaire | Wik & Rox sails the southeastern Peloponnese, navigating the notorious Cape Maleas, known for unpredictable gusts up to 45 knots and conflicting swells.5:53 After anchoring on the north side of Monemvasia to avoid congestion, the crew moves to the southern anchorage for better conditions before exploring the medieval town’s upper and lower districts.7:55 During a 53-nautical-mile transit toward Navplio, the vessel struggles to maintain speed in light winds, eventually resorting to motoring through uncomfortable swell.15:13 Throughout the passage, the onboard Raymarine system experiences repeated failures, cutting out more than 30 times in four hours.8:16 The crew also performs maintenance on the cockpit teak, removing hazardous footrests that frequently cause toe injuries and applying a water-repellent nano-coating to the cockpit floor.24:27 Practical techniques demonstrated include the use of an anchor bridle to relieve tension on the windlass and the deployment of an anchor ball while at rest.21:09
