Cosa tratta questo video

Aubrey departs Puerto Vallarta at 0400 aboard Houdini, a large pirate-ship-style sailboat, bound for Manzanillo as the first leg of a passage to the Panama Canal — her first offshore sail since being seven months pregnant, with a one-year-old daughter, Violet, and a green crew aboard.▶ 3:57 The shakedown passage immediately produces multiple failures: a broken shackle on the lazy jacks, a fouled roller furler on the Genoa requiring someone tied to the bow to clear it, crew seasickness, and 6-to-8-foot seas with a 9-second period that were not forecast.▶ 6:20 Aubrey submarines the new bowsprit into waves while heading into wind to fix the rig.▶ 6:59 The boat tucks in 30 miles short of Manzanillo at an unplanned anchorage.▶ 7:12 A hydraulic steering leak — caused by a hose cut slightly too short during a rebuild — requires monitoring ATF fluid before each sail.▶ 14:10 The critical incident comes on departure: bad fuel contaminates the system, the engine cannot start, and Houdini drifts toward rocks in zero wind and strong current.▶ 14:58 Aubrey calls Andy Keenan of Keenan Filters, who instructs her to bleed each fuel injector individually rather than just the bleed nuts.▶ 15:50 She turns back, misses the tide window, and re-anchors to polish the fuel tanks again.▶ 16:08
