Cosa tratta questo video
The 40-foot Oyster sailboat *Break of Dawn*, captained by James Evenson, intercepts a distress call from a dismasted 48-foot vessel, *Yara*, approximately 1,200 miles from land in the Pacific.4:22 The *Yara* crew of three reports a broken mast at the foot, with the spar lost overboard, and a captain suffering from a leg injury with edema. *Break of Dawn* carries five crew members and limited fuel, precluding a tow or a significant fuel transfer.9:30 The *Yara* crew weighs abandoning their vessel against attempting a jury-rigged repair using a whisker pole and Dyneema line. *Break of Dawn* calculates an intercept course and heaves to overnight to maintain a visual on the disabled vessel.6:20 The crews coordinate via VHF radio to plan a potential personnel transfer at first light, as *Break of Dawn* remains the only vessel in the vicinity capable of providing immediate assistance.0:34
