Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of the sailboat Sunday transits the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) from Annapolis to Wilmington, North Carolina, to escape freezing winter temperatures and incoming storms.0:06 During the passage, they stop in Belhaven and Oriental, North Carolina, to wait out weather and resupply.0:17 Navigating the ICW requires careful timing of tides and bridge clearances, particularly at the Wilmington Bridge, where the crew coordinates with another vessel, Lady Aquitaine, to ensure a bridge opening due to a VHF radio configuration issue that prevents them from accessing US-specific channels.17:02 The crew motor-sails through 1.5-meter swells and 10-knot winds, occasionally navigating bridges in darkness.11:39 They time their departure from Wrightsville Beach to catch a four-knot favorable current up the Cape Fear River to Wilmington.12:23 The vessel’s VHF radio remains locked on international channels, necessitating reliance on other boats for bridge communications in US waters.16:54
