O que este vídeo aborda

Yacht Zora, a 38-foot steel-hulled sloop, completes a 700-mile passage from the northwest tip of Newfoundland across the Labrador Sea to Kekortok, Greenland.6:23 The crew monitors ice charts for weeks to track sea ice movement around Cape Farvel.10:30 Upon reaching the southwest coast of Greenland, the vessel encounters significant concentrations of icebergs, bergy bits, and growlers carried by the current.10:41 The crew slows the boat to maintain full daylight for navigation and uses radar to identify larger ice masses, though they note that growlers remain difficult to detect due to their low profile.10:54 Fog presents a primary hazard, forcing the crew to reduce speed and stow the headsail to improve reaction time.11:41 The passage takes five and a half days, with the crew averaging 6.5 knots while sailing dead downwind.8:06 The voyage concludes with the vessel navigating through dense ice fields to reach the port of Kekortok.14:25
