Cosa tratta questo video
Juho and Sohvi Kangasluoma depart San Francisco Bay aboard their boat, Lumi, to begin a 700-nautical-mile passage north toward the Columbia River.0:40 After four and a half months of refitting the vessel in California, the crew anchors at Paradise Cove to finalize preparations before crossing the Golden Gate Bridge.5:17 The transit involves significant mechanical troubleshooting, as the boat experiences persistent structural flexing in the centerboard and unexplained movement in the rudder assembly.18:52 Despite these issues, the crew maintains a speed of 4.5 to 5 knots in light winds.14:13 They successfully navigate the Columbia River bar, a notoriously challenging entrance, by timing their arrival to favorable weather and tide windows.23:26 The passage serves as a shakedown cruise for the newly rebuilt systems, confirming that while the vessel is seaworthy, the centerboard and rudder require further investigation and potential modification to eliminate noise and structural instability.
