Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Adam and Luke sail an Arpege 34 from Newquay, Wales, to Porthdinllaen on the Llyn Peninsula, covering the distance in 11 hours.16:37 The crew departs at 0500 to catch the north-going tide, maintaining an average speed of 6.3 to 6.5 knots across Cardigan Bay on a beam reach.3:37 Conditions deteriorate near Bardsey Island, where wind-over-tide creates steep, confused seas and breaking waves that wash into the cockpit.9:11 The crew observes two distinct currents meeting off the island, which significantly reduces boat speed and creates turbulent water.12:08 To maintain momentum while running before the wind, they pole out the genoa.12:35 The passage concludes with an arrival at Porthdinllaen, where the crew navigates around local crab pots to anchor.16:31 During the transit, the crew experiments with using a power drill to retrieve a fishing line, noting the potential for corrosion damage to the tool in the marine environment.13:58
