Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Departing Santa Cruz, Galapagos, the crew of Big Lost begins a 3,000-nautical-mile passage to the Marquesas — the longest leg of their Pacific crossing.▶ 5:47 Connor goes up the mast for a final rigging check before departure; the fuel boat tops off the tanks.▶ 0:44 Initial conditions out of Santa Cruz run 8.5 knots of true wind on a close reach, port tack, at 5.5–6 knots boat speed with a half-knot favorable current.▶ 7:25 Past Isla Isabela, the last Galapagos island on their track, a strong beam current pushes south — which the crew accepts because southing puts them into the trade winds needed to carry them west to the Marquesas.▶ 7:37 The pre-departure segment also covers a shore excursion to Sierra Negra volcano, described as the 42nd largest on Earth, including a hike to sulfur vents and a ride to the crater rim in rain.▶ 1:48 The kids took their first surf lessons on Santa Cruz, with Maddie having wanted to surf since Honduras.▶ 3:15 The crew acknowledges months of preparation and still feels underprepared at the moment of departure.▶ 1:13
