Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Mark and his crew, Debbie, complete two coastal passages between San Diego and Oceanside, California, to avoid an incoming weather system forecast to bring 25-to-39-knot winds and 11-foot seas.10:21 On the first leg, they motor-sail north from San Pedro to Oceanside in calm conditions, maintaining approximately 5 knots. During the return trip, they depart San Diego before dawn, motor-sailing with a reefed main to dampen motion and gain speed.11:36 They navigate around kelp beds and lobster pots off Point Loma and La Jolla, using a Samsung Tab 7 tablet running Garmin Helm to wirelessly mirror their chart plotter.16:12 The crew manages the main sail using a boom-mounted winch and bull horns to depower the rig for 15-knot winds.12:33 They successfully reach San Diego Harbor ahead of a front that brings rain and deteriorating conditions.17:13 Monitoring weather windows and departing early allows for comfortable coastal transit before heavy weather arrives.
