Cosa tratta questo video
A crew sailing from Sardinia toward Menorca experiences severe seasickness and uncomfortable, multi-directional swells during a multi-day passage.4:32 The crew manages the motion by adjusting their course to align the swell with the boat's quarter, using the mainsail to stabilize the vessel while sailing downwind with the headsail.6:02 During the transit, the crew relies on 15-minute interval alarms to maintain a solo watch while the other partner sleeps.11:39 A failure to reconnect the AIS to the iPad leaves the crew without electronic ship tracking during a night encounter with a large vessel.6:44 To cope with nausea, the crew listens to familiar movies via Bluetooth speakers rather than watching screens, which proves difficult while ill.12:30 The passage alternates between motoring at 6 knots and sailing at speeds ranging from 3 to 8 knots as wind conditions fluctuate.5:32 The crew attributes the persistent seasickness to caffeine consumption before departure.11:07
