Cosa tratta questo video
A solo sailor on the 30-ft sailboat Triteia loses the rudder approximately 1,000 miles from Hawaii during a passage from Marina Del Rey, California.27:25 After an unsuccessful attempt to secure the damaged rudder in open water, the sailor rigs a steering system using a spinnaker pole lashed aft and a sea squid drogue.34:56 By weighting the drogue and dropping the mainsail to run headsail-only, the boat maintains a rough course downwind.36:31 The sailor coordinates with Captain David Stovall and Captain Noah Pfeffer via Iridium Go! to refine the drogue steering technique.36:13 After 32 days at sea, the vessel reaches the Hawaiian Islands.51:42 Upon anchoring at Waikiki Beach, a subsequent underwater inspection reveals a red-painted chip in the rudder, suggesting a collision with a submerged object caused the failure.1:02:08 The sailor completes the final leg into Honolulu under tow after the Coast Guard confirms commercial towing services are unavailable.56:41
