Matt and Kristen sail their boat, Good, Bad, and Ugly, approximately 25 to 30 miles upwind from their previous location to the northeast end of Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands.0:54 Facing 25 to 30 knots of wind, they maintain a cutter rig with a reefed headsail and full mainsail to fight the easterly breeze.4:02 The crew performs eight tacks over four hours to navigate the upwind passage, occasionally struggling with autopilot settings and right-of-way conflicts with motor-sailing vessels.14:29 Upon arrival, they anchor in a rolly anchorage where they experience broken stern lines over two consecutive nights.19:13 The pair then uses a paddleboard to transport camera gear to The Baths, a geological site featuring large granite boulders and sea caves.18:52 They recommend arriving early to avoid crowds and note that mooring balls are available for dinghy access.24:17 Despite the heavy weather and increased creaking in the boat's interior, the vessel sustains no major structural damage during the transit.27:19
