Cosa tratta questo video

The crew of the 65-foot Far 65 *Falcon* encounters a rapidly drifting iceberg while anchored in a Greenland fjord.13:22 The iceberg moves from the center of the channel to within three boat lengths of the vessel in 20 minutes, prompting the captain to prepare for an emergency departure by readying the anchor rode for a quick release.12:50 Concerned that tidal shifts will bring the ice into direct contact with the hull, the crew decides to relocate the vessel to a nearby anchorage.13:15 They drop the hook in 70 feet of water, paying out 170 feet of chain while backing toward a cliff face to maintain clearance.21:48 The crew also explores a remote weather station on the Greenland coast, navigating steep terrain and dense mosquito populations to verify local wind conditions and visibility before attempting a passage to Iceland.3:12 They conclude that waiting for a favorable weather window is necessary to avoid 35-knot headwinds.27:11
