Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the 46-ft Venus ketch SV Cordelia experiences repeated anchor dragging while anchored in Tyrrell Bay, Carriacou, during a period of sustained 40-to-43-knot gusts.18:20 The vessel drags approximately 100 meters twice in one day, forcing the crew to perform overnight anchor watches.12:02 The owners attribute the poor holding to a thin 8-to-10-inch layer of sand over rock.12:11 During the same period, the crew manages interior leaks from recently serviced hatches and completes a cabin upholstery project using custom-made cushions.3:23 For navigation and weather monitoring, the crew utilizes Navionics on an iPad linked to boat data via a Wi-Fi bridge, alongside PredictWind and Windy.23:36 They also rely on the YouTube channel Mr Weatherman for Caribbean hurricane and weather bulletins and the Navily app for crowdsourced anchorage information regarding bottom composition and holding conditions.24:41 Frequent island-to-island travel in the Caribbean requires consistent customs and immigration check-ins, which the crew notes are mandatory and carry associated fees at each port.22:12
