Sailing Good, Bad, and Ugly · vídeo

O que este vídeo aborda

Kristen performs a solo sail of the couple's engine-less, 30-foot-class sailboat, Good, Bad, and Ugly, in the light winds off Vieques.3:44 Without an engine, windlass, or autopilot, she manages the entire process: checking weather via the Windy app, scouting for hazards on Navionics, setting the staysail and mainsail, and anchoring in Sun Bay.6:07 During the transit, she encounters minor technical challenges, including a tangled line on a winch and a near-miss with the shoreline while managing sail handling.17:47 She notes that the physical labor of hoisting sails and operating the manual windlass—which the crew calls Helga—is the most demanding aspect of the operation.27:48 The exercise serves as a test of her ability to handle the vessel independently in case of an emergency.27:25 The experience confirms that while manual sailing is manageable in light conditions, the lack of mechanical assistance requires constant attention to line management and physical stamina.
