Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The 30-foot sailboat *Triteia* completes a series of coastal passages from Port Stephens to the Gold Coast, Australia, covering approximately 250 nautical miles. The crew navigates through frequent squalls and unpredictable weather, often finding that GRIB files from PredictWind fail to accurately forecast local wind speeds. During a 65-nautical-mile overnight passage from Port Stephens to Crowdy Head, the crew sails the entire distance until the final six miles, when light winds necessitate engine use.8:26 The crew later transits from Coffs Harbor to Moreton Bay, stopping at Byron Bay to avoid adverse conditions.35:46 The passage concludes with a twilight entry into the Southport entrance, which the crew notes would have been hazardous in total darkness.37:01 Throughout the trip, the crew manages the boat using a Hydrovane for self-steering in consistent winds, switching to a tiller pilot when wind speeds drop. The crew also practices marina docking maneuvers at Coffs Harbor to build experience.15:23
