Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the 50-ft sailboat Triteia sails from Victoria, Mahé, to Silhouette Island in the Seychelles, covering a 20-mile passage in 9-to-10-knot winds.6:29 The vessel encounters a lumpy sea state caused by conflicting swells around the island before anchoring in 31 feet of water.6:22 The crew explores the island’s interior, visiting the ruins of the 19th-century Anse Mondon settlement and observing local flying foxes.17:20 To mitigate rolling in the anchorage, the crew deploys a roll stabilizer system using a rigid sea drogue, a 14-lb Fortress anchor, and a whisker pole.19:55 The system utilizes a topping lift and fore-and-aft guys to hold the pole out to the shrouds, while the weighted drogue dampens the boat's motion.21:54 The crew also notes the necessity of using mosquito repellent to prevent dengue fever while hiking and highlights the risk of surf when landing a dinghy on the beach.14:13
