A seized windlass prevents anchoring, and an engine oil leak forces them to remain moored at a pontoon in Savota Bay.3:00 They resolve the windlass issue by drilling screws into the cap to twist it off after percussive maintenance fails.6:50 While waiting for repairs and weather windows, they explore the interior of Lefkada by car, visiting mountain villages and Gialos Beach.4:56 Once the engine and windlass are operational, they attempt a 12-nautical-mile passage to Ithaca.7:42 The wind increases to 25 knots, gusting to 30, forcing the crew to reef the sails and eventually drop them entirely to maintain control.8:21 The passage serves as a significant test of their teamwork and ability to manage the boat in heavy conditions.8:32
