Sailor in red jacket watches foggy Pacific seas from deck
O que este vídeo aborda
Leo Goolden sails Tally Ho south from San Francisco, departing early to avoid wind-over-tide conditions under the Golden Gate Bridge, then stops briefly at Half Moon Bay before continuing to Moss Landing in thick fog with two reefs in the main.▶ 1:21 Moss Landing is an unusual transient stop; the visit centers on two specific attractions in the boatyard.▶ 2:56 The first is the Western Flyer, the 1930s fishing vessel John Steinbeck chartered for the 1940 voyage that inspired *Log from the Sea of Cortez*, now rebuilt by the Port Townsend Shipwrights Co-op as a science and education vessel with a diesel-electric hybrid drivetrain — a 425-horsepower John Deere turbo diesel paired with twin electric motors capable of running silent at five knots for four to five hours.▶ 3:49 The second is the Sunflower Star Laboratory, which breeds sunflower sea stars, a critically endangered species whose collapse from sea star wasting disease after 2013 removed the primary predator of sea urchins, triggering urchin population explosions that have decimated kelp forests along the entire Pacific coast of North America.▶ 6:44 The lab is working toward reintroduction of the sea stars and kelp forest restoration.▶ 7:01 Tally Ho departs Moss Landing on an overnight coastal passage south.▶ 7:58
