Hva denne videoen dekker
Nova Loman runs aground twice while navigating the North Sea near Cuxhaven, Germany, in conditions characterized by strong currents, 20-knot headwinds, and rough seas.4:06 The first grounding occurs in a marked channel where charts indicated a 6-meter depth, but actual depth measured 1.5 meters; the vessel frees itself by waiting for the current to push it off the sand.4:42 During the subsequent transit, the boat experiences widespread GPS interference affecting the AIS and mobile devices, forcing a transition to manual navigation while dealing with a 30-degree current set.9:10 The rough sea state causes significant movement inside the cabin, nearly dislodging a solar panel and requiring the crew to secure loose gear.6:45 The second grounding occurs the following day while exiting a harbor, again within a marked channel.11:02 The crew relies on the second-smallest headsail to maintain maneuverability in the heavy conditions.3:43
