After completing a 14,000-nautical-mile passage from Tahiti, the crew of the Baltic 51 *Venus* performs post-voyage maintenance in Halifax, Nova Scotia.0:44 Repairs include rebuilding a broken mainsail car and replacing a torn genoa with a donated Yankee sail.1:48 The crew then spends two weeks at anchor in Armdale before beginning a coastal transit toward the Îles-de-la-Madeleine.4:53 To meet a speaking engagement, they adopt a "cabotage" strategy, moving between anchorages daily while sailing exclusively without the engine.5:27 Navigation requires constant vigilance to avoid thousands of lobster trap buoys lining the coast.6:30 During the transit, the captain dives into 6°C water to clear a lobster trap line snagged on the rudder.7:38 The crew also recovers a drone that performed an emergency landing after a sudden battery failure.14:20 The journey through the rocky, spruce-lined islands of Nova Scotia concludes as they prepare to enter the Gulf of St. Lawrence.15:34
