What this video covers

Tomás and Agustina sail their boat, *Bohemia*, from Panama City to the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia, a 4,000-nautical-mile passage across the Pacific Ocean.2:13 The crew maintains a 3-hour watch rotation, relying on a wind vane self-steering system for the duration of the 35-day transit.17:38 Early in the voyage, a loose shroud tensioner requires repair, and a clogged anchor locker drain causes water to flood the forward cabin, soaking mattresses.9:19 Navigating near the Galápagos Islands, the crew encounters 30-knot winds and a broken depth sounder, complicating their anchorage.26:40 They also discover a large mass of green nylon fishing net entangled in the propeller, which they clear before continuing.29:32 Throughout the passage, they monitor AIS and Navionics for collision avoidance with commercial shipping and fishing vessels.5:04 The crew utilizes a spinnaker for light-wind conditions and manages food storage by prioritizing long-lasting vegetables like cabbage.39:02 The voyage concludes after 35 days at sea, confirming that thorough preparation and reliance on self-steering gear are essential for long-distance tropical circumnavigation.43:28
