While anchored in a fjord, the 45-foot *Millennial Falcon* encountered unexpected 49-knot gusts that caused the vessel to drag anchor.12:34 During the storm, a violent gust flipped the deck-stowed dinghy, submerging the outboard motor and tearing loose three solar panels.9:05 The crew used the boat's windlass and dinghy hoist to upright the dinghy and recover the engine while the vessel was dragging.10:11 After the weather subsided, the owner performed a full teardown of the outboard, including cleaning the carburetor, replacing the oil filter, and flushing the cylinder to clear a hydrolock.19:02 The engine successfully restarted after these repairs.20:11 The crew also reported a previous incident in Puerto Rico where a lost propeller shaft forced them to maneuver the boat using only the headsail and jibing techniques.5:36
