Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The crew of the ETAC 38 performs extensive sail repairs while anchored in Funchal, Madeira, following damage sustained during a passage from São Miguel. High winds exceeding 35 knots caused significant tearing and stitching failures in the mainsail, genoa, and staysail.1:53 The skipper reinforces the sails by hand-sewing patches and adding leather chafe protection, noting that the genoa is now limited to use in force 4–5 winds.13:41 The vessel relies on a 12V-to-220V inverter setup for Starlink and other electronics, which required a fuse upgrade to 10A to handle the 90W charging load.5:40 Upon arrival in Funchal, the crew clears customs with local police, refuels with 110 liters of diesel, and restocks provisions at a local market.19:58 The anchorage at Funchal is described as highly exposed and prone to significant rolling, contrasting with more sheltered spots encountered earlier in the region.19:19 The crew utilizes the dinghy for shore access to visit the city center and botanical gardens.29:30
