Cosa tratta questo video
A Prout Ltd. Snowgoose 37 Elite sails from Pittwater, Australia, on a coastal passage toward Port Hacking, a drowned river estuary south of Sydney.1:39 The crew navigates a 34-mile route in a building northeasterly airflow, maintaining speeds between seven and nine knots while sailing close-hauled at 60 degrees to the wind.15:17 Upon arrival at Port Hacking, the crew anchors in 2.8 meters of water over a mud and sand bottom.18:33
The crew addresses a broken lifeline wire by consulting a local rigger.21:07 The rigger repairs the wire by swaging a new fitting onto the existing cable, a process that cold-forms the metal onto the wire to restore the original length.23:26 The repair costs 20 Australian dollars and allows the crew to reattach the lifeline to the stanchion.24:04 The crew also attempts to cook a meal while underway, noting the difficulty of defrosting frozen meat in a small galley pan.13:28
