What this video covers
Nick and his crew sail from Corfu to Paxos, Greece, in November, taking advantage of off-season conditions with minimal boat traffic.9:21 During the passage, the crew practices jibing maneuvers in 12 to 13 knots of wind.9:34 They utilize the boat's radar to acquire and track a target vessel not broadcasting an AIS signal, noting the need to adjust the radar's alignment by a few degrees.2:58 While navigating toward the bay of Gaios, the depth sounder indicates one meter of clearance beneath the keel in a shallow area.7:01 The crew chooses to anchor in Gaios for the night to avoid swell, planning to circumnavigate Paxos and Antipaxos the following day when wind speeds are expected to drop.9:46 The vessel’s bimini is folded back to allow for open-air sailing, and the crew observes that their performance exceeds that of a Lagoon 42 catamaran while sailing under genoa.5:48
