O que este vídeo aborda
SV Cordelia, a Venus 46 ketch, completes an 18-day Atlantic crossing from Europe to the Caribbean, covering approximately 2,150 nautical miles.14:20 During the passage, the crew manages daily four- and three-hour watch rotations while navigating heavy seas and significant sargassum seaweed.8:50 Mid-passage, the Edson steering system fails when a steering cable jumps the quadrant due to cable stretch.10:00 The owner repairs the system by installing a double nut behind a stripped thread, noting that the hardware requires imperial rather than metric sizing.10:43 The crew maintains contact with a buddy boat, Cuba, throughout the transit and uses an Iridium Go for satellite communications.0:09 The passage concludes with the vessel arriving at St Anne's Bay, Martinique, after encountering light winds that necessitated engine use on the final days.12:04
