Jibsea, a cruising sailboat, departs Fort Lauderdale for a five-day offshore passage toward the Chesapeake Bay.0:22 The crew encounters uncomfortable 35-to-45-degree apparent wind angles and steep seas, forcing them to motor-sail through light winds and Gulf Stream currents.1:23 Upon reviewing weather forecasts predicting 30-plus knots of wind, rain, and lightning near Cape Hatteras, the crew decides to divert into Beaufort Inlet, North Carolina, to avoid hazardous offshore conditions.10:40 They enter the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) at Beaufort, navigating through 20 knots of wind and a knot of adverse current to reach the protected waterway.12:23 The transit through the ICW involves passing under fixed bridges with 64-foot clearance and sailing sections of the route using an asymmetrical spinnaker and wing-on-wing configurations.9:58 The crew concludes the passage by anchoring in a calm ICW location after 10 hours of motoring and sailing through the waterway.17:26 Monitoring weather windows and choosing to divert to the ICW prevents exposure to dangerous offshore conditions near Cape Hatteras.
