Cosa tratta questo video
Micha and Antje anchor in a glacier-fed fjord near Charcot Town, Greenland, while navigating through dense icebergs and unpredictable wind shifts. The crew initially attempts to anchor in 14 meters of water, but the steep, uneven seabed forces them to relocate to 29 meters, where they deploy 55 meters of chain to ensure the anchor holds.23:55 During the night, a neighboring two-masted vessel, the Kamak, drags its anchor in 15-knot northwesterly winds, nearly grounding in shallow water before successfully resetting.24:13 The area features extreme depth variations, with some sections dropping from 4 meters to over 100 meters within a short distance, complicating safe anchoring.25:24 The crew monitors the shifting ice and wind conditions, eventually deciding to depart for a fjord 20 miles north to avoid further congestion and potential dragging incidents.28:32
