STORM RUNNING SAILORS
July 01, 2024 by Adventures of an old Seadog | Language: EN Play Time: 00:19:24 | SAILING YOUTUBERS

Challenging Stormy Conditions During a Boating Expedition
The sailors, on their quest for adventure and testing the limits of their boating skills, found themselves facing a fierce storm. They were sailing through unfamiliar waters when they realized the sudden change in weather conditions.
Difficulty in Navigating Through Rough Waters
Sailing during stormy weather can be daunting, but it’s all part of the thrilling adventure for these seasoned sailors. With wind speeds reaching 30 knots and rough waves crashing against their boat, they knew that finding shelter would be paramount.
The Importance of Having a Plan
In preparing for such expeditions, having access to reliable weather forecasts and knowing potential hiding spots are crucial. The sailors had been following the long-range forecast closely, which indicated an incoming storm that posed a significant threat.
Navigating Narrow Passages
Entering the Mby River and navigating through its narrow entrance proved to be an exhilarating challenge. With their electronic chart guiding them, they meticulously searched for a suitable place to drop anchor amidst ships already in the harbor.
The Unexpected
In this adrenaline-filled adventure, unexpected obstacles appeared. The sailors had to adapt quickly, making swift decisions that could have been catastrophic if incorrect.
Moral of the Story
Respect for those who continue to venture out in these harsh conditions, like their fellow sailor Uncle Ron, should not be overlooked. Hand-cranking anchor chains under intense wind and maintaining focus on safety and navigating – it’s the mark of true bravery and determination.
The Journey to Safety
As they approached their temporary haven, the tension built up. With every passing moment, the sailors felt closer to their ultimate goal – shelter and a break from the relentless storm.
Embracing Challenges
This harrowing experience underscored the beauty of nature, the camaraderie among fellow sailors, and the indomitable human spirit. Each storm encountered is an opportunity for growth and learning, making each voyage a memory to cherish.
The Next Episode
As the storm clears and calm weather returns, what new adventures await our brave sailors? Stay tuned for the next thrilling episode to find out their next course of action and whether they decide to push forward or seek calmer waters.
It's a race against time for two yachts to find a place to hide from the storm

Thanks so much for your support,
The adventure continues.
Safe sailing.
Boat:
White Shadow is a Van De Stadt ‘Seal’ 36 (11 metres). She is hand made in steel, 2004, with a round bilge (hull) and a modified coach roof. This makes her a ‘one off’ and in my opinion the most beautiful Van De Stadt 36 ever built.
The camera gear:
Main camera is a Panasonic Hc- V700 with a Rode External mic with a sponge and dead kitten attached.
Action, underwater scenes and small blogging is done with two Osmo action cams. Some boat shots are done with a Dji gimbal camera.
Editing:
Final cut pro on a Macbook. Most of the material for each video is filmed over a period of several weeks or so and the editing of each episode is normally done over a day. This process can take longer if original music is used or permissions are needed for copyrighted materials etc. Much time is spent sorting out technical problems. In this case I normally get the help of a younger person who understands computerie stuff!
There are also times when filming, editing and uploading is not possible due to being at sea or in locations with no internet access.
Content:
I have found that filming and releasing material over a period of time is better than doing ‘vlog’ style videos and trying to make episodes out of whats happened in a week, regardless if it’s good content or not. By filming over a period of time I can be more selective in what goes into each video. My aim is to avoid ‘bland and mundane’ and have at least one or two exciting and interesting events in every video. Every video has to be entertaining.
Comments and being at sea:
I love reading your comments. Most weeks Im able to read everyone. I cant reply to everybody but I do read and enjoy them. Keep them coming! There are times that It might seem I'm not on the internet for certain periods, this is normally when Im at sea on passage. While Im out on the Ocean I have completely no communications with the outside World.
