Cosa tratta questo video

The 1965 Alberg 30 sloop *Triteia* departs Puteiki Bay on Waiheke Island, New Zealand, for a short-handed passage to Ponui Island.3:53 Accompanied by the sailing yacht *RaLa*, the crew navigates the Hauraki Gulf in gusty conditions, reaching speeds that bury the rails as they approach the channel between the islands.6:44 The vessels anchor in 15 feet of water in the lee of Ponui Island, a private landmass, to seek protection from forecasted 25-knot winds.9:31 The crew utilizes the anchorage to wait out a week of unsettled weather before continuing their coastal cruise. During the passage, the *Triteia* crew and the *RaLa* owners recount a previous near-miss encounter in the open ocean between Fiji and New Zealand.10:38 The *RaLa* crew had spotted a static white light on their radar and AIS that they initially misidentified as a weather buoy, only to realize later it was the *Triteia* sailing at one knot.12:20 The incident highlights the difficulty of radar detection for small fiberglass vessels and the necessity of maintaining a constant visual watch in high-traffic zones.15:46
