Cosa tratta questo video

Ale and Max depart Fulanga, Fiji aboard Y2K after five weeks, driven out by dwindling food supplies and visa renewal requirements rather than any desire to leave.1:25 They motor-sail toward Kandavu, running the watermaker during a calm night passage when wind drops to 5–8 knots earlier than forecast, forcing the engine on for most of the overnight leg at 1,200 rpm and roughly 6 knots to conserve fuel and time a 2 p.m. arrival.11:33 The approach to Astrolabe Reef requires threading a pass roughly one mile wide between two main reefs, with a small islet at the center; the chartplotter and satellite imagery guide the entry.13:15 After rounding the reef and transiting the deep Kandavu pass, they anchor off Dravuni island in front of a white-sand beach, the only boat in the anchorage on a Sunday.16:10 The following morning they conduct a sevusevu ceremony with the village chief alongside a Hawaiian crew aboard a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 49 DS named Alani, whom they had previously met at Fulanga.17:23 Provisioning remains unresolved at arrival; the crew notes a shunt needs to be added to the watermaker circuit to measure output.8:26
