Cosa tratta questo video
Camille Milligan and Jesse, a couple in their 20s, are wrapping up two months of cruising Thailand aboard their 39-foot sailboat Stella, with Jesse's entire family — six people and a cat — aboard for the final stretch before hauling out in Malaysia.0:19 The passage covers island-hopping along Thailand's coastline, including stops at Koh Muk for cave snorkeling and a mooring-ball pickup, and an unnamed large island where the crew practices mooring under instruction.2:16 Sailing conditions range from a reefed mainsail and rolled furler in 14-knot winds making 6.5 knots, to glassy, windless days that burn expensive diesel.2:52 A dinghy stop at a low-tide village requires tying to a local fisherman's dock and climbing a barnacled ladder — the Thai locals offer shoes to a barefoot Camille and wave the crew through.9:15 The boat has marine growth including what looks like an oyster on the hull, flagging the need for a haul-out.5:40 Visa expiry forces the departure from Thailand; the next stop is Malaysia for Stella's first haulout ahead of a planned passage to Indonesia.18:17 Reefing both sails and easing the sheets produced better boat speed than carrying full canvas in the conditions described.1:27
