Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 45-foot catamaran, Ewa, departs a remote, unprotected anchorage in the Bahamas as wind shifts and swell increases.1:20 The crew, Brett and Jade Evans, decides to leave after the anchorage loses its protection, making the dinghy landing increasingly difficult.1:20 Before departing, they address a mechanical failure in their headsail furler, which has caused the drum and foil to shift upward.15:01 Rather than risking further damage to the rig or the foil fittings, they choose to sail only with the mainsail for the transit.16:08 The crew also manages the stowage of paddleboards on deck using corroded, spring-broken clips, opting for manual tensioning and knots to secure the gear.18:04 They maintain a routine of rinsing the dogs with fresh water after beach trips to manage dander and sand accumulation in the cockpit.10:18 The passage proceeds under sail in 12 to 15 knots of wind, with the crew noting calmer sea states once clear of the reef.19:37
