Cosa tratta questo video

A couple aboard a Nauticat 33 motorsails from Egg Island to Little Harbor, Abaco, in the Bahamas.1:03 The crew maintains a cruising speed of approximately 6 knots while managing low battery levels by motor sailing.2:23 To maintain engine health during these extended low-RPM runs, the operator runs the 90-horsepower engine at 1,200 RPM for the majority of the passage before increasing to 1,600 RPM toward the end to clear the engine.9:02 The vessel uses a jib and mizzen sail configuration for the downwind run.6:14 During the transit, the crew attempts to troll for mahi-mahi using a ballyhoo rig and a blue-and-silver lure, but they lose two fish due to improper drag adjustment and timing.3:46 Upon arrival at Little Harbor, the crew anchors in an exposed position due to a scheduling conflict but plans to relocate closer to shore to avoid swell.10:53 The boat tracks its position and route history using the Sea People app.6:33
