Cosa tratta questo video
Micha departs Warnemünde, Germany, for a solo voyage toward the Swedish west coast, navigating the Baltic Sea and the Øresund strait. During the transit, he encounters variable conditions, including light winds requiring engine use near Møns Klint and sudden gusts reaching 30 knots in the Øresund.6:54 To manage the heavy weather and steep seas, he reefs the mainsail twice and switches to a small cutter-stay jib.16:57 He reports persistent headwinds and a 0.7 to 1.0-knot counter-current, which significantly slows progress.11:35 Navigating the busy shipping lanes between Helsingør and Helsingborg requires constant manual steering, as the windvane struggles to maintain a steady course in shifting, gusty winds and heavy ferry traffic.16:50 He successfully clears the shipping channel and reaches the harbor at Höganäs, Sweden, where he previously weathered a storm.23:03 The passage highlights the challenges of solo sailing in high-traffic, current-dominated waters with fluctuating wind speeds.
