Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 280-nautical-mile passage from Aruba to Santa Marta, Colombia, results in a total electrical failure after the boat’s 120-amp main fuse blows while using the bow thruster.1:34 Because the replacement 400-amp fuse is an American-standard inch size rather than the required metric size, the crew relies on a temporary bypass until reaching the marina.2:55 During the 51-hour transit, the vessel encounters severe thunderstorms with lightning strikes hitting the water in close proximity.12:27 The crew exhausts their primary diesel supply during light-wind conditions, forcing them to navigate the final miles into Santa Marta using a 21-liter reserve.14:19 Colombian maritime regulations require cruisers to hire a local agent for check-in procedures at each new district, a process that can cost approximately $400 per move unless the vessel docks at a marina that manages the paperwork.5:34 The crew successfully arrives at Marina Santa Marta after navigating the coastal waters near the Sierra Nevada mountain range and Tairona National Park.16:25
