Ce que couvre cette vidéo
During an Atlantic crossing, the crew of the 38-ft Jibsea experiences significant course deviations due to shifting wind patterns and light air. After 19 days at sea, the vessel encounters a weather system that forces a change in heading from a westerly course toward the Caribbean to a northeasterly direction, effectively pointing the boat back toward Europe.11:22 Throughout the passage, the crew manages spinnaker deployment in winds up to 19.9 knots, navigates through messy sea states, and monitors nearby traffic via AIS. They also contend with a lightning storm and periods of calm that necessitate brief engine use. Provisions are limited, with the crew rationing fresh produce and flour. The passage remains ongoing, with the crew adjusting their route to avoid aggressive rolling in heavy swell caused by the lack of wind to fill the sails.
