Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of SV Delos, a 53-foot Amel Super Maramu, navigates a four-day passage from the Tuamotus to the Marquesas, contending with persistent seasickness and challenging upwind conditions. The crew maintains a watch schedule of three-hour shifts while managing 20 to 30 knots of wind and frequent squalls that necessitate repeated sail adjustments. To maintain comfort and speed, the crew adjusts their course 10 degrees to port, moving from 40 to 50 degrees off the wind. They utilize hand lines and a reel with plastic squid lures for fishing, catching a skipjack tuna that they release due to its strong flavor. The crew relies on pre-made meals like spaghetti bolognese to manage nutrition while suffering from nausea and fatigue. Upon arrival in the Marquesas, the crew finds the initial anchorage too rolly for their needs, particularly for their young daughter, Sierra, and decides to relocate to Daniel's Bay for better protection.
