Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Jakob Lang, sailing the 9.2-meter vessel Wolf, transits the Portuguese coast from Bayona toward Lisbon while preparing for a solo circumnavigation.0:12 After departing Bayona, Lang navigates heavy coastal traffic, specifically avoiding numerous unmarked fishing buoys and fish cages that pose a significant collision risk, particularly at night. During the passage, he uses radar and AIS to track and maneuver around a large thunderstorm cell, eventually passing through the center of the system while maintaining a course near the coast. Off the coast of Portugal, the vessel snags a 10-meter-long fishing net on its keel and rudder.25:38 Lang heaves to and enters the water to manually clear the obstruction from the rudder plate.26:21 The passage includes stops in Porto and Cascais, where Lang manages fuel consumption and performs maintenance.8:58 The experience highlights the necessity of constant radar monitoring for weather cells and the persistent hazard of unlit fishing gear in Atlantic coastal waters.
