O que este vídeo aborda
A 23-nautical-mile passage from Langkawi, Malaysia, to a Thai island anchorage aboard the Alberg 30 Triteia covers the full day in six and a half hours, sailing almost the entire distance.▶ 23:14 Departure is delayed by a newly installed electric windlass whose manual backup is jammed and whose electric circuit is not yet wired, forcing James to break the anchor free from mud by hand.▶ 1:27 Once clear of the breakwater, Triteia sails at nearly six knots with one reef in the main.▶ 2:25 A channel between Langkawi and Thailand accelerates wind sharply; James works down to a third reef in the main and 75% headsail and still makes six knots, while a sudden gust rounds the boat up on autopilot, scattering raw egg and dropping a battery on crew member Victoria's ankle.▶ 6:24 Wind steadies after crossing the channel.▶ 6:59 At the anchorage — sand bottom, 20 feet of water, five-to-one scope — James and Victoria attempt to sail onto anchor for roughly 20 minutes but lack sufficient wind.▶ 21:22 The outboard then bogs down and won't stay running; sails go back up, wind fills in, and the outboard finally starts, covering the last quarter mile under power.▶ 21:27 Sailing without a diesel engine shifts the threshold for motoring: James notes the outboard's limited range makes full-time sailing the default rather than the temptation to motor at 2.5 knots.▶ 11:54
