O que este vídeo aborda

The crew anchors in Himare, Albania, for two nights, noting the sandy bottom and clear water but citing constant swell and loud beach music as significant drawbacks.0:32 After an unpredicted 30-knot gale forces a delay, they depart for an eight-hour, 35-nautical-mile passage toward Vlore.2:27 Because fuel stations are scarce in Albania, the crew relies on reserves purchased at Corfu Marina.3:38 The passage involves motoring against a northerly wind and heavy swell, forcing an impromptu overnight stop in a protected bay along the peninsula to escape choppy conditions.5:22 The coastline features numerous concrete bunkers and a large cave identified as a former submarine tunnel.8:37 Upon rounding the peninsula, the crew reaches Orikum Marina, the only marina in Albania, to clear in and access shore facilities.10:35 The transit highlights the lack of protected anchorages along the Albanian coast and the necessity of carrying sufficient fuel for long-distance motoring.
