Sam Holmes sails his boat six miles from Nazare, Portugal, to a nearby bay, beating into southerly winds gusting to 30 knots.0:07 The transit requires multiple tacks, during which he reefs the mainsail and struggles with a jammed jib sheet.4:35 Upon arrival, he anchors in a narrow, rocky cove, initially dropping in a crowded spot before relocating to a more secure side of the bay to account for wind shifts.7:52 He monitors the boat’s position and battery voltage remotely using the VIAR crew sensor app while exploring inland.20:58 During his stay, he visits Andre Bandarra’s workshop to discuss 3D printing, paragliding technology, and remote-controlled aircraft.9:49 The pair also scans dinosaur footprints using the Scannerverse app and goes paragliding together.16:08 The trip concludes with a short day sail in 10–13 knots of wind and a coastal walk.17:04 Proper reefing and anchor placement are essential when navigating narrow, wind-exposed anchorages in gusty conditions.
