Cosa tratta questo video
Day 6 of a 19-day Atlantic crossing, with 13 days remaining, Jade Evans, Brett Evans, and Ayana sail toward the Caribbean where Ayana's newly purchased boat awaits.0:12 Speed has held around 5 knots for most of the passage, with swells building to 6–9 knots of boat speed as larger waves arrive.27:22 The crew furls the mainsail after the wind angle threatens a backfill, running on headsail alone while waiting for the wind to shift and allow a wing-on-wing configuration.11:00 PredictWind shows a storm hitting the Canary Islands with 22–25-foot seas; the crew expects the edge of that system to bring 25-knot winds gusting 30 and 15-foot swells within two days — the biggest sustained conditions of the passage.29:02 A full provisions tour covers the boat's food stores: canned goods, vacuum-bagged rice and flour, potatoes, pasta, a large chest freezer, and three compartments of freeze-dried backpacking meals plus calorie blocks in the grab bag, prompting the crew to estimate two weeks of food remaining.14:26 Bioluminescence, a flying fish on deck, mild dehydration, and the crew dog Dingo's ear splint fill out the day.0:52 The crew warns viewers that rough conditions will likely pause daily uploads, directing followers to the PredictWind live tracker instead.33:53
