Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Sam Holmes and crew sail from New York City to Montauk, New York, navigating a light-wind passage that transitions into a difficult upwind beat. After departing the Statue of Liberty, the boat motors through fog and calm conditions, forcing a fuel stop at Shinnecock Inlet due to limited diesel capacity. Once back at sea, the crew encounters 25-to-30-knot winds and steep waves, requiring a third reef in the mainsail and a partially furled jib. The vessel struggles to make headway while tacking against the wind for 30 hours before finally reaching the eastern end of Long Island. The crew uses an anchor alarm app to track the boat's position after their masthead tri-light fails due to poor internal wiring connections.11:02 Additional tasks include performing laundry on board using salt water and pods, and rowing ashore in a small raft for supplies.11:18 Persistent upwind conditions and limited fuel reserves necessitate careful route planning and weather monitoring during coastal passages.
