An Amel 50 sails from Royal Island, Eleuthera, to Lynyard Cay in the Abacos, a passage of approximately 60 miles.0:07 The solo sailor utilizes a Code 0 headsail to maintain speeds of 6 to 7 knots despite significant hull fouling from six months in the water.1:07 During the transit, wind speeds increase to 22 knots, causing the Code 0 to vibrate heavily and forcing the sailor to strike the sail as the apparent wind angle narrows.12:21 The route requires navigating through areas with strong tidal currents, specifically near Current Cut, where the sailor advises timing passages during slack water to avoid currents reaching 5 to 6 knots.10:48 The sailor plans to anchor at Green Turtle Cay to seek shelter from an approaching northern gale forecast to exceed 40 knots.4:33 The passage concludes with a successful arrival at Lynyard Cay after an eight-hour journey.18:52
