Hva denne videoen dekker

Tally Ho completes a 26-day Atlantic crossing from Florida, making landfall at Fastnet Rock and Baltimore Harbour on the southwestern tip of County Cork, Ireland.0:20 Leo Goolden notes the boat used less than half her diesel over the passage — enough reserve to motor-sail the final miles on a dead run rather than gybe and arrive after dark.1:09 The crew spent the final morning clearing the deck, rigging fenders, scrubbing the hull, and inflating fenders in calm conditions to present the boat well on arrival.1:31 Several local boats came out to meet Tally Ho at Fastnet Rock.4:24 Goolden marks the moment as historically significant: the last time Tally Ho rounded Fastnet Rock was in 1927, when she won the Fastnet Race.4:37 The crew rounds Shuriken Island before entering Baltimore Harbour to a crowd welcome.4:45 Diesel management over a long offshore passage — monitoring consumption against reserve — allowed flexibility at the end of the crossing when conditions and timing demanded it.
