Cosa tratta questo video
The Beneteau Oceanis 440 arrives at Annapolis, Maryland after a 49-nautical-mile day-passage from Portsmouth that stretched from a planned 42 miles, motoring for over an hour in near-calm conditions before a violent squall with 35-knot winds and 45-knot gusts hit, forcing the crew to hold on and wait it out.28:42 Estelle, who fears storms, had already lost most of a night's sleep to overnight lightning and thunder.19:56 The watermaker — a Katadyn unit — failed during the passage when the pump overloaded; a specialist in Baltimore is identified as a possible repair source, but no part was found online.9:55 The NEMAX PVC dinghy, a €500 3.3-meter inflatable now two years old, suffered a patch failure after contact with a barnacle-covered dock piling; super glue bought in the US did not hold.21:28 Anchoring at Annapolis is free on the far side of the bridge but requires a holding tank and compliance with local rules listed on Navionics.36:23 The Harbormaster must be notified before anchoring near the City Dock.32:37 Christophe and Estelle walk Annapolis's wooden-house neighborhoods, noting smoke haze from Canadian wildfires and a Naval Academy graduation ceremony.29:24 The watermaker failure, not the storm, is the crew's most pressing problem on arrival.
