From Troubles to Tranquility using REGEN! Transatlantic Crossing Part 3 | Ep 263
We complete our 10th transatlantic crossing with beautiful downwind sailing and magical moonlit nights having travelled over 2000 miles to the Caribbean following some challenging days at sea. Using our hybrid electric regen to keep the batteries topped up after experiencing engine trouble, we make a welcome landfall in Antigua and use the electric drive to get into port.
