Ep 154 Fighting Squalls on Passage to Martinique (Plus Boat vs. Reef)
March 06, 2024 by Sailing Talisman | Language: EN Play Time: 00:00:17:42 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We depart St Lucia on Passage to Martinique, seeing 20-25 knot tradewinds, but squalls build in the afternoon, presenting wind speeds into the high 30’s (37 knots). For those unaware, these quickly become serious conditions. An un-reefed sail will be torn to shreds in a matter of moments.
And upon arrival in St Anne, Martinique, we witness an Island Packet cruising yacht run full speed (under power) into an adjacent reef. I didn’t get footage of the actual crash, but I’d say they were close to being dismasted.
