Cosa tratta questo video
Khalifa departs Highborne Cay on a Thursday morning and makes a two-hour passage south to Shroud Cay in the Exumas, Bahamas, motivated by a cold front pushing in from the north and a longer-term plan to reach the southern Caribbean before hurricane season.1:10 Adriano navigates from the bow using a tablet-based remote helm setup — controlling autopilot heading and monitoring depth, speed, AIS targets, and radar through a single screen — while Denise steers from the cockpit.1:27 The approach threads between submerged coral heads; Navionics charts the hazards but does not show depth over individual rocks, so Adriano watches visually from the bow while calling course corrections.1:44 Once anchored, the crew launches the dinghy with a GoPro mounted and explores Shroud Cay's tidal creeks, mangrove channels, limestone caves, clay flats, and open-ocean beaches.8:45 The dinghy grounds in 15–20 cm of water in one shallow channel.18:33 Multiple sea turtles are spotted throughout.19:20 Adriano also shows a two-snubber setup on the anchor chain after a single snubber repeatedly parted.17:17 After 11 months at sea, the crew describes Shroud Cay as the most beautiful anchorage of the voyage.Watch
