Ce que couvre cette vidéo

James and Rhonda, sailing the east coast of Australia aboard the vessel Triteia, experienced a dragging incident while anchored at Hexham Island.3:29 During an evening squall, winds shifted unexpectedly from the southeast to the north, turning the anchorage into a lee shore.3:47 Both Triteia and a nearby catamaran dragged approximately 100 feet before their anchors reset.5:44 The crew of Triteia identified the shift by monitoring their depth sounder and iPad navigation track, subsequently paying out an additional 25 feet of chain to secure their position.5:33 They attributed the drag to insufficient scope for the tidal conditions and the rapid onset of the squall.6:04 To mitigate rolling in the anchorage, the crew deployed a sea squid drogue as a stabilizer, attaching it to the boom and weighting it with a dinghy anchor.9:04 The vessel remained secure for the remainder of the night.7:49
