O que este vídeo aborda

Paul and Sheryl Shard conduct the maiden voyage of their new Anksail Orion 49, sailing a 220-mile overnight passage from Makkum, Netherlands, to Hull, UK.0:27 The route requires navigating the North Sea’s dense concentration of wind farms and natural gas platforms.3:39 The crew utilizes the pilot house for watch-keeping to maintain visibility while protected from cool winds.2:43 Arrival at the Hull marina necessitates strict adherence to tidal windows, as the lock gates only allow entry within three hours of high water due to a 16-foot tidal range.5:19 The passage plan involves timing the river transit to coincide with a flooding tide, which provides up to three knots of current assistance.5:33 To manage the tidal constraints of the River Humber, the crew anchors overnight at Spurn Head before completing the final approach.10:32 The Reeds 2024 Almanac serves as the primary resource for calculating tidal gates and current flows.11:07
