Sailboat wedged near iceberg in Greenland waters
What this video covers
A Garcia Nouanni 43 sailing in Greenland waters becomes entangled in a submerged fishing net while navigating a narrow channel.▶ 23:19 The crew discovers the obstruction after the boat suddenly stops while under power.▶ 24:52 To assess the damage, the skipper uses a 360-degree camera mounted on the hull to inspect the propeller, rudder, and keel for remaining debris.▶ 26:13 After confirming the running gear is clear, the vessel resumes its passage.▶ 27:11 Throughout the transit, the crew relies on Raymarine Lighthouse charts and RealBathy mapping, which logs depth transducer data to create custom bathymetric maps.▶ 5:08 These tools prove essential for identifying safe routes through poorly charted, shallow areas and for selecting secure anchoring spots.▶ 5:45 The crew emphasizes the importance of keeping sharp knives, specifically Mora knives, accessible in the cockpit to quickly cut away fishing lines or nets that pose a hazard to the propeller or rigging.▶ 29:27
