Mirage, an Amel 50 sailed by Vlad, covers 190 nautical miles from New York in 24 hours, averaging 9–10 knots downwind on a passage to Cape Cod.5:39 The night was calm, and Vlad sails solo after his crew member departs by ferry to Boston.7:57 The route passes Plum Island — where Vlad notes a large government laboratory he visited years earlier as a client — then through the Cape Cod Canal, saving roughly 30 miles over going around.1:45 Water clarity impresses him: clean but distinctly northern green.5:56 At Cape Cod, Vlad describes the town as a kind of French Riviera, with a central street worth walking, and plans to stay two more days before a southerly wind sets up.8:09 The next planned leg is approximately 200 miles to Nova Scotia, Canada.0:38 Vlad's task during the stopover is to clean Mirage and prepare for that offshore passage.8:44 The 24-hour, 190-mile run confirms the Amel 50's downwind speed potential in favorable conditions.5:39
