Sailboat heads into storm over Drake's Bay waters
Cosa tratta questo video
Sailing Miss Lone Star approaches Drake's Bay, Costa Rica, with minutes to anchor before a squall closes in, paying out 120 feet of chain in reverse while rain hits the deck.4:07 The anchorage approach is complicated by neighboring boats with insufficient scope, forcing Aubrey to position Miss Lone Star further out.7:29 Before that, the crew departs Olvito — a rolling overnight anchorage where anchoring after dark let them leave before park rangers began rounds — dealing with a recurring anchor swivel problem that causes the swivel to come up backwards and jam in the deck track.1:22 At Drake's, a fuel smell below deck prompts an inspection of the tank and fuel lines; the pickup and return lines are identified as the likely source of the issue.9:29 Ashore, Aubrey, Jordan, and a toddler walk several miles into Drake's town to provision, navigating a dinghy dock entrance described as hazard-prone, a bridge over croc-watched water, and jungle terrain to find fresh fruit.13:21 The broader passage context is a southbound run toward Panama, with increasingly blue Caribbean-side water and consistent dolphin company.2:35 A BetterHelp sponsorship segment addresses paralysis-by-analysis as a barrier to casting off.5:01
