Cosa tratta questo video

Simon and Kim evacuate their boat up the Cooper River in South Carolina to seek shelter from Hurricane Matthew.4:33 The crew departs the marina under 25-to-30-knot gusts, aiming to reach a secure anchorage before local evacuation orders take effect. During the transit, the engine overheats repeatedly due to debris clogging the raw water filters, forcing the crew to anchor temporarily near a bridge to clear the system. They eventually secure a temporary dock space at Cooper River Marina before continuing upriver. Navigating the river at night proves hazardous, as the crew encounters unlit barges and other vessels in the channel. Upon reaching their final destination, they deploy two anchors to secure the boat. A nearby vessel provides a dinghy shuttle to shore, where pre-arranged transport awaits to drive the crew away from the storm's path. Regular maintenance of raw water filters and early departure are essential when navigating inland waterways during hurricane evacuations.
