Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of Jibsea, a custom aluminum expedition sailboat, prepares for a high-latitude passage from Bonavista, Newfoundland, to Greenland, Iceland, and the Faroe Islands. While docked in Bonavista, the crew navigates a departure in 18-to-20-knot winds by using a stern line to pivot the boat’s bow away from the wharf, compensating for the lack of a bow thruster and the vessel's prop walk.16:59 The crew identifies a lack of an ice pole—a long pole used to push bergy bits away from the bow—as a potential oversight for their upcoming transit.20:02 During their stay, they utilize inflatable FenderTex fenders, noting their durability against rough industrial docks and their compact storage capacity.21:16 The crew also explores the area by mountain bike, emphasizing the need for shin protection after sustaining injuries from metal pedals.6:09 They conclude their stop by visiting the Matthew Legacy, a replica of the ship used by John Cabot to reach North America in 1497.9:58
