¿Qué cubre este video?

The crew of SV Delos navigates from Nuku Hiva to the southern Marquesas islands of Hiva Oa and Tahuata to escape uncomfortable, rolly anchorages and avoid the path of Tropical Cyclone Nat.6:16 While the crew initially questioned their decision to sail north, the move places them safely outside the cyclone's impact zone.0:37 During the passage, the boat maintains a steady eight-knot speed in 15 knots of wind on a favorable point of sail.10:06 Upon arrival at a crowded anchorage, the crew performs maintenance, including replacing a non-rotating masthead block used for the dinghy lift with a rotating double block to prevent line chafe.15:51 The outboard engine starter mechanism fails, requiring the crew to disassemble and rewind the recoil spring.17:01 The crew also explores the island by van, visiting local sites before preparing for further travel.11:25 Choosing to relocate based on weather windows and wind shifts proved effective for both crew comfort and vessel safety.
