O que este vídeo aborda

A Beneteau Oceanis 440 departs the British Virgin Islands for a transatlantic passage to Horta, Azores, facing challenging wind angles and heavy seas within the first 24 hours.0:01 The crew attempts a departure under sail, but strong currents and unfavorable wind direction force them to navigate close-hauled at 45 degrees to the wind with a reefed mainsail and reefed genoa.5:21 Despite planning for a more favorable wind shift, the wind remains stubbornly from the east, preventing the vessel from maintaining an optimal course toward the Azores.16:59 The crew encounters 2-meter residual swell and frequent rain squalls, resulting in water ingress in the bilge and a minor leak near the forward water tank.10:01 Navigation is monitored using a tablet loaded with GPX files and a fixed chartplotter, which tracks an estimated 19-to-22-day transit.1:22 After the first day, the boat has covered 129 nautical miles at an average speed of 5.4 knots.26:17
