What this video covers

The crew of the sailboat *Bohemia* departs Miami, Florida, for a coastal passage to Newport, Rhode Island, with their infant son, Taji, and dog, Kite. During the initial leg, the crew manages the boat’s systems, including hoisting the dinghy and installing a Hydrovane windvane for self-steering during offshore stretches.0:43 They encounter choppy seas at the Miami exit due to opposing wind and outgoing tide.6:45 While underway, the crew addresses a persistent, loud creaking noise in the aft cabin by tightening screws on a vertical bulkhead that was rubbing against the bed frame.12:16 They also catch a tuna, which they prepare for dinner.16:32 To manage fatigue, the parents experiment with split watch schedules, with one person handling navigation and the other caring for the infant.17:15 Due to unfavorable weather forecasts, they divert into St. Mary’s Inlet to anchor at Fernandina Beach, Florida.19:27 The crew notes the significant 7-foot tidal range in the area and the strong currents typical of the local delta and marsh systems.22:38
