  • crazy, what's he doing with all that canvas up? Only 50mph wind too and reasonable seas, he must have lost his senses or something and panicked maybe, what a waste of a great boat

  • that boat was handling it fine. if he is that scared, why not just drop the sail and put a sea anchor out. that would keep the bow into the wind. or he could turn the engine and auto helm on and motor slowly to his destination. the sea isnt even that bad

  • @jensvoogt Taken in the main and sailed (or hove to) under storm jib & mizzen.

  • @daggitenator

    what should he have done?

  • What an odd choice of sail configuration for a ketch in 50 knot winds.

  • rich & dummy

  • I would tell them to take my family and I would somehow sail the boat back

  • This is one of the most valuable works that exist. I Thank you all around the world that are the real heroes for people that need assistance. Thank you .

  • god bless the gals and lads of the coast guards of this world :)
