Hva denne videoen dekker
Skipper Chris and Natalie navigate the 47-foot sailboat Saga into Barloge Creek, Ireland, a narrow, rock-strewn anchorage on the southwest coast.1:35 The vessel, which draws 2.4 meters, enters the creek slowly to avoid kelp beds and crab pots while navigating around Bullock Island.4:14 Upon anchoring, Chris uses a lead line to verify a depth of approximately four meters, ensuring sufficient clearance for the 1.2-meter tidal drop.5:02 The crew observes the tidal rapids connecting the creek to an inland lake, noting that the current flows strongly during the transition between high and low water.6:35 They successfully transit the rapids in a dinghy near high tide, timing the passage to avoid the strongest currents.8:49 The crew plans to depart the anchorage for Horseshoe Bay near Baltimore, which features a similarly narrow 40-meter entrance.11:38
