Sailing Good, Bad, and Ugly · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

To prepare for Tropical Storm Ernesto in Puerto Rico, the owner of the sailboat Good, Bad, and Ugly secures the vessel in a bay using three separate anchors to ensure the boat can be abandoned quickly if necessary.0:24 He sets a CQR anchor and two additional lines, diving to verify their placement in the soft mud.1:36 He cleans the boat's bottom using a trowel to ensure the engine can maintain speed against potential three-knot currents.5:08 During the storm, the boat experiences 40 to 50 mph gusts and significant swell, but the Navionics tracking confirms the vessel remains stationary throughout the night.11:16 The owner emphasizes the importance of rigging anchor lines so they can be cast off individually rather than tangled, allowing for an emergency departure if the windlass fails.6:14 Following the storm, the owner returns to his inland farm to clear downed bamboo and assess property damage.14:06 The boat and the farm infrastructure survive the event with minimal impact.17:17
