Cosa tratta questo video
Adam and Luke, sailing from Muros, Spain, toward the Canary Islands, divert their course to Lisbon, Portugal, to avoid a severe weather system.17:40 The crew initially planned a 840-nautical-mile passage but encountered inconsistent winds and heavy, confused seas during the first two days.1:51 After consulting weather reports from Dag Anderson and Dave Wheatley, they decide to wait two days in Lisbon to bypass an acceleration zone off the African coast, where forecasts predicted 30- to 35-knot gusts.19:39 During the transit, the crew modifies their preventer system by routing the line through a spinnaker car to allow for cockpit-based adjustments.11:58 They also navigate close-quarters traffic, including a cargo ship that passed within 0.3 miles.16:37 Upon arriving in Lisbon, they find a crowded anchorage and spend time ashore to rest, resupply, and perform minor maintenance before resuming their journey to Lanzarote.21:32 Prioritizing the safety of the vessel and crew over a direct, high-wind passage allows for more favorable sailing conditions later in the trip.
