Cosa tratta questo video
A 10-mile coastal hop along Eleuthera to Hatchet Bay Harbor in 5–10 knots of wind, with full sails up and the dinghy left in the water for the short run.0:21 Epiphany makes 3–7 knots on a beam-to-close reach, sailing 60–70 degrees off the wind and tacking out to find a better angle before coming back in.0:44 Gordon trails two fishing lures — a squid and a hairy skirt rig with a teaser — hoping for fresh fish for dinner.0:44 The wind generators produce nothing in the light air, though the crew notes the CNC sails perform well in those conditions.1:28 Midway through the sail, a small tear is spotted in the mainsail roughly six inches inboard of the sacrificial strip — a repair that will require the sewing machine at the next port before the damage spreads.2:35 No fish are caught, but the crew is well-provisioned.1:16 Catching a sail tear early, before it runs along the sacrificial strip, is the practical reason to inspect sails during a passage rather than after.
