Dirk and Riki depart Portimão, Portugal aboard their Lagoon 410 S2 Suria for a 450-nautical-mile Atlantic passage to Porto Santo, the small sandy island north of Madeira.▶ 1:21 Leaving the Algarve coast, they pass through the Iberian orca risk zone — where orcas have attacked and damaged rudders since 2020, sinking three boats — and stow their anti-orca flag once clear.▶ 2:19 Conditions run 17–18 knots of true wind from astern, with a persistent beam swell causing heavy slamming against the hulls; they carry a first reef throughout and add a second after dark.▶ 6:18 Watch schedule is four-hour shifts: Riki from 22:00 to 02:00, Dirk from 02:00 to 06:00.▶ 15:57 At 03:41 on the second night, the distance-to-waypoint display confirms the halfway mark at 231 nautical miles.▶ 12:10 They route around a seamount to avoid steepened wave buildup on its lee side.▶ 13:04 Average speed over the passage is 6.6 knots.▶ 21:20 On approach, wind shifts to head-on, forcing them to roll in the headsail and motor into the harbor at Porto Santo, where they anchor in a tight but workable spot.▶ 21:35 The passage completes without gear failures or incidents.▶ 12:46
