Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Garrett and Ruth sail their home-built boat north from the La Paz area into the Sea of Cortez, Mexico, aiming for anchorages at Isla San Jose and Isla San Francisco.3:04 They maintain a speed of 4 to 5 knots under southerly winds, adjusting their course to keep the wind on the quarter rather than dead downwind to improve sail efficiency.10:10 The crew monitors weather forecasts for potential northerly winds and consults cruising guides to select the east side of Isla San Francisco for protection against forecasted southwest winds.10:41 During the passage, they troll with a purple cedar plug and a skirted squid lure, successfully catching a skipjack at 4 to 5 knots.9:07 As they approach the islands, they encounter a localized area of light wind and sloppy seas, causing their speed to drop to 1.5 knots before the breeze fills in again.13:19 The passage marks the furthest north the couple has traveled since they began cruising years ago.4:47
