Cosa tratta questo video
Armand and Liya, sailing their boat Cosmo, complete a 120-nautical-mile passage from Bahia de Los Angeles to Santa Rosalia, Mexico, to surprise friends aboard the vessel SE Perspective.▶ 7:31 The two-day trip involves light winds, requiring the use of a spinnaker for extended periods, and intermittent motoring when the breeze dies.▶ 9:04 During the passage, the crew catches skipjack tuna and performs minor repairs, including mounting solar-powered cafe lights using a Dremel and a GoPro mount.▶ 10:57 Upon arrival in Santa Rosalia, the crew navigates a challenging docking procedure at a marina managed by the Mexican Navy, ultimately moving slips after an initial assignment error.▶ 18:11 The transit highlights the transition from the remote, quiet anchorages of the northern Baja coast to the more populated waters of Baja California Sur. The crew emphasizes the importance of rigging maintenance, noting that their backstay tension is at its limit and will require adjustment in Puerto Vallarta.▶ 3:51
