Cosa tratta questo video

The 1965 Alberg 30 sloop Triteia motors 20 miles down the Northland coast of New Zealand from Tutukaka to Whangarei.0:58 To avoid a 2.75-knot adverse tidal current at the entrance to the Whangarei estuary, the crew anchors overnight in Smuggler's Cove.3:02 The following morning, they navigate the channel with a favorable 1.5-knot current to reach McLeod Bay, an anchorage near Marsden Cove Marina.15:26 During the transit, the engine runs at 2,000 RPM to maintain 5 knots.15:40 Upon arrival at McLeod Bay, the crew sets a 45-lb Mantus anchor in 5 meters of mud, deploying 5:1 scope.23:55 The skipper evaluates the anchorage by identifying wind acceleration zones created by saddles between high peaks and notes the importance of avoiding shoals that could become lee shores during cyclonic wind shifts.20:53 A bridle snubber made of half-inch nylon provides stretch to mitigate shock loads during upcoming storm conditions.25:36
