Cosa tratta questo video
A crew prepares for a 6.5-day passage from Gibraltar to the Canary Islands, navigating a stationary low-pressure system that has displaced the typical Azores High.8:51 The route requires crossing the Gibraltar Channel, where the crew anticipates 3-meter ocean swells and significant boat traffic near Tarifa.9:14 To clear the channel quickly, the vessel motors at 7 knots with both engines running against a 3-knot current.16:08 Weather routing software is used to set parameters for wind speed and wave height, though the crew notes that the southwest winds create unfavorable conditions compared to the usual northwest flow.5:39 The planned departure coincides with high water to mitigate the impact of the current.8:35 Before departing, the crew visits the Gibraltar monkeys, where a monkey attempts to steal a sailing jacket from a backpack.11:46 The passage begins with a traditional offering to Neptune.17:27
