Cosa tratta questo video

A crew anchored in a small bay near Citadella experiences an unforecasted 30-knot storm while moored using the "med-tide" method, where the bow is anchored and the stern is tied to shore.1:04 The side-on wind force causes the anchor to drag 5 to 6 meters, eventually hooking under a rock.11:09 A nearby catamaran appears to strike the rocks during the night before departing the next morning.9:19 The crew notes that med-tide mooring increases the boat's windage and prevents the vessel from weather-vaning into the wind, which significantly increases stress on the ground tackle during squalls.11:57 They recommend using long, sacrificial shore lines that can be retrieved from the boat in an emergency to avoid abandoning gear.12:49 Earlier, the crew encounters a flying gurnard, a fish capable of emitting growling sounds from its swim bladder, and observes a bloom of fried egg jellyfish, *Cotylorhiza tuberculata*.4:39
