Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the Lagoon 410 S2 *Suria* sails from Madeira to La Graciosa, Canary Islands, covering 268 nautical miles in two days.2:36 The passage begins in 12-knot winds, but the crew encounters confused, steep seas reaching three meters, significantly higher than the forecast of 1.4 meters.5:18 Dirk and Riki attribute the rough conditions to wind-against-current effects.16:53 To manage the motion and ensure a daylight arrival, the crew reefs the mainsail and the jib, maintaining speeds between seven and ten knots.14:21 Throughout the transit, they monitor weather via the Windy app and track nearby commercial traffic, including the 200-meter freighter *FWN Arctic*, using AIS.7:40 Upon arrival at La Graciosa, the crew anchors in 10.5 meters of water after completing the necessary email registration for the protected area.19:29 The passage confirms that even in moderate wind conditions, local current interactions can create uncomfortable, steep sea states that disrupt sleep and require aggressive sail reduction.
