Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A cruising family aboard Wildly Intrepid spends several weeks in the Ragged Islands, Bahamas, in May, anchoring at Hawkeye, Raccoon Cay, Hug Cay, and visiting Duncan Town — the archipelago's only settlement. Alex and Cory raft up with a neighboring boat for several days; Alex notes the key conditions for safe rafting: a calm anchorage free of surge and a well-set anchor capable of holding both boats.5:35 Separating from the raft goes smoothly before the move to Raccoon Cay.5:54 Spearfishing produces hogfish, Nassau grouper, triggerfish, and lionfish; shark pressure at one site had been stressful, and a calmer spot south of Hagpie offers relief, though strong current there demands caution.9:21 Alex tests a repaired headsail in 19 knots and it holds.10:03 Cory introduces Alex to wingboarding; she manages the board towed behind the dinghy but struggles upwind.3:10 The four-nautical-mile dinghy run to Duncan Town in shallow water is passable on plane even with four children aboard.11:25 A local named Myron gives the group a pigeon-collection tour and a Ragged Islands license plate as a souvenir; the group also fills jerry cans with fuel and finds a bar-restaurant willing to open for them.13:54 Cruisers gathering in the Ragged Islands in May skew experienced, many transiting from the Caribbean or preparing Atlantic crossings.18:42
