Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Adam and Khiara sail their catamaran, Millennial Falcon, from the northern coast of Grenada to Ronde Island, covering approximately 20 miles in six to seven hours.12:05 To minimize engine use, the crew practices departing anchorages under sail by hoisting a double-reefed mainsail and staysail before weighing anchor.2:17 During the passage, they encounter a half-knot to one-knot current flowing against them, which reduces their speed to three or four knots in 18 knots of wind.10:04 Upon arrival at Ronde Island after dark, they receive assistance from other cruisers in the anchorage who use a dinghy to help them locate a sandy spot to drop the hook.11:03 After initially anchoring in a rolly, current-swept location, the crew relocates 100 feet to a more sheltered area.13:25 The pair also performs maintenance on the vessel, replacing a zinc anode and inspecting the cutlass bearing to address concerns about engine noise.4:19
