Qué cubre este vídeo
The crew of the sailboat Corail navigates shallow, current-swept waters while transiting to Bimini, Bahamas.2:19 During the passage, the vessel repeatedly encounters depths of 0.0 to 0.4 meters, causing the keel to touch the sandy and seagrass-covered bottom.10:11 While attempting to enter the Bimini channel, the boat runs aground in a narrow, dredged section due to a maneuvering error near another catamaran.18:11 The crew declines external assistance via VHF, opting to wait for the rising tide to refloat the vessel.18:29 After approximately 30 seconds of applying engine power as the tide lifts the boat, they successfully maneuver out of the shallows and anchor nearby.20:21 Subsequent inspection of the seabed by dinghy reveals clear gouges in the seagrass, confirming the location of the grounding.22:20 The crew notes that the depth sounder’s safety margin likely prevented more significant damage during the contact.13:39
