Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of the sailboat Sunday navigates a passage from Puerto Rico toward the Bahamas, contending with uncomfortable, short-period swells and light, inconsistent winds. During the first 21 hours, the vessel covers 110 nautical miles, averaging five knots while battling 1.7-meter waves spaced four to five seconds apart.4:59 These conditions create significant rolling, which prevents the crew from sailing wing-on-wing early in the trip due to the risk of an accidental jibe.13:52 The crew manages fatigue through rotating night watches and relies on meal-prepped food to avoid cooking in the rough seas.2:57 Lightning activity near the boat forces the crew to monitor radar for storm cells within a 24-nautical-mile radius.11:53 By the third day, the swell flattens, allowing the crew to set the main and headsail wing-on-wing, increasing speed from five to 6.5 knots in 13- to 14-knot following winds.14:17
