Cosa tratta questo video
A Sweden Yachts 42 named Spindrift completes a 4,330-nautical-mile Atlantic crossing as part of the ARC Europe 2025 rally. The crew departs Simpson Bay, St Martin, on May 10, covering the first 850-nautical-mile leg to Bermuda in under six days with southeasterly winds. During this stretch, the boat reaches 9.5 knots using an asymmetric spinnaker. The second leg from Bermuda to Horta, Azores, spans 1,800 nautical miles and takes two weeks, involving navigation around storm systems and wind speeds reaching 35 knots. The final 1,200-nautical-mile leg from Horta to Brixham, United Kingdom, includes three days of motoring due to light winds, following earlier encounters with thunderstorms and calm conditions. The crew manages provisioning and maintenance stops in each port before the final arrival. The vessel maintains an average speed of 10 knots in heavy air and experiences varied weather patterns, including electrical storms and periods of total calm, throughout the three-stage transatlantic voyage.
