Cosa tratta questo video
Leo Goolden and crew sail the California coast from San Simeon to San Diego, navigating overnight passages to manage long distances between sheltered ports.1:40 The route includes rounding Conception Point, where the crew timed their transit for early morning to avoid the area's notorious heavy winds and violent, short-period waves.4:40 During a double-handed overnight passage from Santa Cruz Island to Santa Catalina Island, Goolden encountered stronger-than-forecast winds and a short, unpleasant sea state.10:27 With his crewmate Marat unable to assist due to a back injury, Goolden reefed the mainsail to three reefs and performed a solo jibe in the middle of the night.11:26 The vessel later arrived in San Diego, where the crew visited the Maritime Museum of San Diego to see the HMS Surprise and the 1863 iron-hulled ship Star of India.13:46 The journey concludes with the boat's arrival in Mexico, where the crew plans to regroup before continuing toward the Panama Canal.16:48
