A 19,330-mile circumnavigation attempt aboard a sailing vessel encountered a severe knockdown in the Indian Ocean, resulting in a near-miss for crew member Pedro and significant damage to onboard equipment.0:18 While navigating in 40-knot winds and 3-to-4-meter seas, a large wave struck the boat, causing a violent heel that submerged the starboard antenna and solar panels.2:29 The impact broke the antenna and bent the solar array, while the crew inside the salon were thrown across the cabin, resulting in multiple bruises and a laceration.15:27 Analysis of onboard camera footage confirms the vessel experienced a extreme angle of heel, though the crew notes the incident resulted from a cross-sea rather than a rogue wave.18:20 The crew attributes their survival to being braced and the presence of interior structural supports that prevented more serious injuries.47:33 Lessons learned include the necessity of wearing safety tethers while on deck, the vulnerability of non-reinforced solar panels, and the importance of installing high-end communication gear like Starlink in protected, elevated positions.22:27
