Sailors laugh on deck as submarine looms in San Diego Bay

Hva denne videoen dekker

James sails a 14-foot Laser on San Diego Bay with Victoria, who has 35 years of small-boat experience.0:58 The two rig and launch from shore with no motor — only a paddle as backup — and reach speeds they estimate at 3–4 knots in light-to-moderate wind.4:45 The highlight of the sail is a close encounter with a nuclear submarine transiting from Point Loma into the bay under tug escort; James notes it is the closest he has been to a submarine on the water, having previously only heard them on the radio or spotted them at distance.6:20 They sail downwind as far as Point Loma, surfing small following waves on the return leg.7:48 The session also touches on the Laser's handling characteristics — no outboard, entirely wind-dependent — and the vulnerability of being becalmed mid-bay with only sculling as an option.10:43 James frames the stop as a rest break before continuing to the Annapolis Boat Show, with his boat Triteia tied up at Reebok Marina while the wet season in Malaysia passes.0:18
