Jibsea sailed 28 nautical miles from Martha's Vineyard to Nantucket in dense, low-visibility fog.1:05 During the transit, the crew encountered a sudden "fog squall" where wind speeds increased from 6 knots to 18 knots.2:49 The vessel maintained speeds of 7 to 8 knots while navigating around shoals and heavy marine traffic.2:35 Upon approaching the Nantucket harbor entrance, the crew followed a ferry to navigate the narrow, shallow channel as the fog lifted.4:24 The crew anchored in 10 feet of water, noting that the harbor is crowded with moorings and dinghy traffic even outside of the peak July and August season.6:41 A damaged mainsail, caused by sun-degraded fabric, was repaired with sail tape.5:36 After visiting the 279-year-old Brant Point Lighthouse, the crew departed for a passage to Canada, relying on radar and AIS to maintain progress through continuous, thick fog and winds reaching 22 knots.11:20
