Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of the sailboat Corail navigates the Saint Lawrence River from Tadoussac to Rimouski, Quebec, covering approximately 60 nautical miles in a single day.12:43 During the passage, the vessel maintains an average speed of 6.5 knots, with bursts up to 8 knots using only the genoa in favorable currents.21:50 The crew encounters challenging conditions, including significant chop and gusty winds that cause the liferaft to shift on deck, requiring the crew to secure it against the dinghy.24:26 Navigation requires constant vigilance due to the river's complex tidal currents and shifting weather fronts. Upon arrival at the port of Rimouski, the crew finds the facility officially closed for the season but secures permission from the harbormaster for two nights of free dockage, including access to showers.26:37 The boat experiences electrical issues with the engine battery, forcing heavy reliance on the generator for power.10:57 The interior temperature drops to 8 degrees Celsius, and the lack of a functional diesel heating system makes the cold conditions difficult for the crew.24:53
