Nahoa, a cruising catamaran, departs Cape Town for a 5,000-nautical-mile passage to the Caribbean with stops in St. Helena and Fernando de Noronha.0:27 The crew encounters a cold front shortly after departure, forcing them to motor at increased fuel consumption to outrun the system.3:45 During the transit, the family manages seasickness, maintains the rig, and monitors chafe on lines.1:16 They experiment with heaving-to in 20 knots of true wind to manage boat motion, though they find the resulting hobby-horsing uncomfortable.9:17 The crew uses Starlink for connectivity while underway, which allows for remote work and content production during night shifts.13:02 Upon arriving at St. Helena at 1:30 a.m., the crew navigates the unlit mooring field without AIS assistance from other vessels.21:08 Customs procedures at St. Helena require passports, vessel registration, and proof of medical insurance, while strictly prohibiting the transport of fruit, food waste, or honey products to shore.22:38
