Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew departs Miami for a passage to Nassau, Bahamas, opting to sail without engines for the first 12 hours by utilizing a long tack against the Gulf Stream. During this initial leg, the vessel reaches speeds of 10 knots before entering the Bahama Bank via Cat Key Cut. The transit involves variable wind conditions ranging from 5 to 20 knots, necessitating intermittent engine use and motor-sailing to maintain progress toward the Tongue of the Ocean. The crew catches a mahi-mahi for dinner and manages daily tasks including boat yoga, sailor showers, and clearing customs by flying a yellow quarantine flag. After encountering shifting winds and rain squalls, the crew decides to anchor in West Bay for the night due to light winds. The passage highlights the challenges of maintaining a sailing-only strategy in fluctuating weather and the practicalities of international arrival procedures.
