Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The crew of the 62-foot mast sailboat Sunday transits the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) from Norfolk, Virginia, while managing tight vertical clearances.1:54 With a total air draft of 66 feet including the VHF antenna, the vessel faces potential collisions with fixed bridges officially rated at 65 feet.10:14 The crew times their passage to coincide with low tide to maximize clearance, successfully navigating several fixed spans without damaging the antenna or wind instruments.16:35 The transit also involves coordinating with bridge operators via VHF radio and timing arrivals to meet hourly lock schedules.14:42 The crew notes that bridge heights can vary from official charts due to age, water levels, and recent construction, making real-time observation and tidal planning essential.16:05 They emphasize that a cockpit enclosure is a significant upgrade for cold-weather cruising, as temperatures during the transit dropped to one degree Celsius.3:45
