Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of an Oyster 56 completes a transatlantic delivery from St. John's, Antigua, to Plymouth, United Kingdom. Departing Antigua, the vessel navigates the channel without a bow thruster by using the starboard line as a pivot. During the passage, the crew manages squalls reaching 30 knots by reefing the main and deploying the staysail. Over five days, the boat logs 858 miles with a daily average of 171.6 miles. To maintain speed while navigating the Azores high-pressure system, the crew adjusts the course south to find wind. Anti-chafe protection is applied to lines to prevent wear during the extended transit. Upon reaching the Azores, the vessel stops at Horta but departs for Ponta Delgada after failing to secure fuel. The final leg across the Bay of Biscay involves sailing at 9 to 10 knots with a reefed main, staysail, and full Genoa. The voyage concludes with an arrival in Plymouth Sound after navigating increased shipping traffic in the Western Approaches.
