Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The crew of the Lagoon 410 S2 Suria anchors near the medieval fortress of Methoni, Greece, before navigating to a secluded bay to wait out a period of high winds.Watch During the stay, the crew observes a large sunfish swimming along the coast.7:58 To manage power needs during the stop, the crew relies on flexible solar panels, which generate up to 1,750 watts and provide 73 amps of charging current, rendering them energy-independent for cooking, water-making, and daily living.11:01 They compare this solar output to their Silentwind wind generator, which produces significantly less power—peaking at approximately 211 watts in 17-to-18-knot winds—and conclude that solar is more efficient for their needs in Mediterranean latitudes.12:43 After the winds subside, the vessel moves to Koroni, where the crew struggles to set the anchor in a seabed characterized by seagrass and large rocks.15:05 They eventually secure the boat by finding a small sand patch and using a bridle while backing down with both engines at 1,500 RPM.15:20
