Ce que couvre cette vidéo
SV Delos and the vessel Parley complete a three-day offshore race across the Pacific Ocean, finishing within one mile of each other. The crew of SV Delos encounters heavy squalls and challenging conditions, forcing them to sail with three reefs and navigate a furler failure.2:05 To manage seasickness during the rough passage, the crew experiments with medication, noting that full doses caused excessive fatigue and dizziness.2:40 Upon arrival at a remote atoll, the crew performs visual navigation through a narrow, shallow pass, relying on forward-scan sonar and Google Earth satellite imagery to avoid uncharted coral heads, or "bommies," within the lagoon.8:16 Although SV Delos secures line honors, Parley wins the regatta on corrected time after accounting for a pre-agreed motoring penalty.12:46 Following the race, the crew celebrates with a beach bonfire and begins wingfoil training in the protected lagoon waters.13:33 The experience confirms that visual navigation and real-time sonar are essential for entering uncharted atoll lagoons safely.
