O que este vídeo aborda

Aaron and Allie sailed their boat, Spy, from Alcatraz Cove toward Punta La Gringa in the North Sea of Cortez to seek shelter from incoming 35-knot northerly winds.0:26 They chose a 12-mile inner passage through a reef-lined channel rather than the safer, 5-mile longer route around Isla Coronado.2:05 As they entered the channel, six-foot, steepening waves forced Aaron to hand-steer to prevent the boat from broaching.3:57 The heavy conditions lasted for a short section of the passage before they reached calmer water.5:26 After waiting out the gale, the crew traveled to Bahia de Los Angeles to resupply fuel and groceries, noting high prices due to the remote location.9:03 Later, they returned to Isla Coronado to anchor, spearfish for grouper and barracuda, and hike the island’s volcanic peak.10:31 Choosing the shorter, more protected-looking route without tidal charts can lead to dangerous, steep seas when wind opposes current.2:40
