Cosa tratta questo video
A 1985 Endeavour 42 named Sea Dogs ran aground and was destroyed in Formentera, Spain, after the owner failed to deploy a snubber while anchored.3:05 The owner, who had been sailing solo for over 30 hours without sleep, anchored in a 7:1 scope before leaving the vessel for several hours.4:00 Large ferry wakes in the anchorage contributed to the boat dragging onto the beach, where it became pinned between rocks.8:44 The vessel lacked insurance, and structural damage sustained during the grounding and subsequent salvage attempts rendered it a total loss.11:11 The owner personally dismantled the boat on the hard, separating fiberglass from steel to minimize disposal costs in the expensive local yard.13:03 The incident highlights the critical importance of using a snubber to relieve load on the windlass and anchor chain, particularly in anchorages subject to heavy swell or ferry traffic.8:46
