Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Christophe and Estelle sail from their anchorage to the Rade de Toulon in late August to test their boat’s performance in open water.0:41 Because the boat lacks sheets for the sails, the crew completes the entire passage under engine power.0:53 They encounter choppy seas and spray that leaves them soaked, but the boat handles the waves well.6:59 The crew uses the NaviLine app to track their route, monitor waypoints, and navigate around fishing vessels and military traffic.8:58 Upon arrival at Tamaris, they anchor in 3 to 3.5 meters of water over a muddy bottom.10:46 The crew keeps the engine running briefly after dropping the anchor to ensure it sets properly in the soft substrate, as they experienced some initial dragging.13:06 Although the phone used for navigation loses battery power before the trip concludes, preventing a full analysis of fuel consumption and speed statistics, the crew reports satisfaction with the boat's stability and engine performance in rough conditions.10:26
