Hva denne videoen dekker
After more than 65 days at sea without touching land — departing Uruguay, diverting to South Africa after a large rogue wave struck the stern, then crossing the Indian and Pacific Oceans — the crew of Vuelta Vertical arrived at Puerto Chacabuco in the Chilean fjords on May 28.0:09 The live session is filmed while transiting Canal de Chacao, which runs 6–10 knots of current, as the boat exits the fjords into open water.1:48 Gabriel Curiel, a Mexican follower-turned-crew-member who joined for the fjord leg, describes waiting in Chacabuco on a cold, foggy day to spot the mast emerge between two mountains.3:12 The crew discusses food shortages felt only after reprovisioning, three or four days without heating aboard that caused heavy condensation below, and a standing rigging repair using a STALOC terminal fitting to avoid swaging and allow reuse of the existing shroud.1:07:05 Paula announces a separate future project: installing a new engine on her own boat and planning Mediterranean sails with Víctor between the Balearics, Corsica, and Sardinia, followed by an Atlantic crossing and the Caribbean.44:58
