Cosa tratta questo video

During a 650-nautical-mile passage from Greenland to Reykjavik, Iceland, the 45-foot catamaran Jibsea experienced a knockdown in 28-knot winds and 10-foot, steep seas.7:06 The crew was sailing with full canvas on a beam reach when a wave rounded the boat into the wind, causing a 35-to-40-degree heel.15:33 A second wave then struck the vessel, forcing it onto its side and flooding the cockpit.15:51 The crew remained below deck during the incident, which they identified as a safer alternative to being exposed in the cockpit.16:38 The vessel sustained damage to the canvas enclosure during the event.15:28 The crew noted that using a preventer on the boom might have helped stabilize the boat by preventing the accidental round-up, though conditions were too severe to safely deploy one once the weather deteriorated.16:15 The four-day transit required constant reliance on radar and AIS due to thick fog and the presence of icebergs.5:30
