O que este vídeo aborda

A 86-nautical-mile passage from the Dardanelles to the Greek island of Limnos requires motor-sailing due to light winds, though the crew benefits from a favorable current through the straits that boosts speed over ground to 7 knots.▶ 9:42 Upon exiting the Dardanelles, the vessel encounters 15–20 knot Meltemi winds, necessitating a full mainsail and reefed genoa.▶ 10:59 The crew anchors overnight in a southern bay of Limnos near the Agios Apostolos chapel, finding 4-meter depths approximately 150 meters offshore.▶ 8:38 Due to a forecast of Force 8 Meltemi winds, the crew decides to depart Limnos early for the northern Sporades, covering a 60-mile stretch to reach the calmer waters of the western Aegean.▶ 12:02 Maintenance tasks include troubleshooting a non-functional masthead steaming light, which is resolved by cleaning electrical contacts.▶ 18:44 The vessel utilizes an induction cooktop for meals while the gas stove remains disconnected.▶ 14:22 The crew relies on a Windpilot self-steering system for navigation and monitors AIS traffic to avoid collisions with uncrewed fishing vessels in the Aegean.▶ 21:41
