Cosa tratta questo video
A 38-ft sailboat transits from Comox to Desolation Sound, British Columbia, during a July passage characterized by building southerly winds and strong currents.4:35 While sailing on a beam reach, the crew experiences a mechanical failure when the jib furler tack pin shears, preventing the sail from rolling in.10:20 The crew temporarily repairs the furler drum connection using a stainless steel carabiner and a shackle, allowing them to furl the sail and continue the passage.11:15 Throughout the trip, the crew manages sediment buildup in their water tanks, which becomes agitated and murky during rough sailing conditions.5:27 Upon arrival in Desolation Sound, the crew stops at Refuge Cove to access the general store and infrastructure before seeking a remote anchorage.15:38 The vessel maintains speeds between 6.3 and 8.6 knots during the transit, even after reefing the mainsail in anticipation of 25-knot gusts.9:06
