Ep 249 | Scariest Time Ever! 50 Knot Winds and a Stuck Furler, Sailing Nutshell
January 11, 2022 by Life in a Nutshell | Language: EN Play Time: 00:14:47 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
After the lovely sail through the Owen Channel we decide to anchor for the night. The wind is howling.
But, disaster strikes when Magnus tries to furl the headsail. Something is very wrong.
We go backwards and forwards into the wind to try and furl it but it’s impossible. The stresses on the mast are unbelievable and we are very concerned that the mast will fall!
Thanks for watching and see you all next time.
Wendy and Magnus
