      We had a fishing trawler that wound up I believe being a total loss cuz they couldn't get it unstuck from a similar situation. He was asleep and probably overworked, didnt think and had it on autopilot. I didn't get any more details but at least he was asleep...😅 personally, I'd rather have to loose an anchor than have to file an insurance claim.

The chain must stay on the bottom. If not the boat going up and down on the waves lift the ancher up and it wont hold. So you would need 100? Yards of line. Where i live boats from 27/30 feet and bigger have a full chain anchor line. And a winch on the bow where the chain fits in. When anchoring youre best of putting 3/5 times the dept chain length out.

    I would guess the tow off the beach alone will be $1000, then several hundred to tow it back to where ever they launched it. He should have dropped his anchor when he realized it wouldn't restart, and called the tow company then. Now instead of a few hundred he's going to pay substantially more. Very fortunate he ended up on a smooth sandy beach and not the rocks next to the inlet.

I boated in the entrance to Baltimore harbor where wake from a ship raised my boat and snapped 2 anchor ropes while fishing off Sparrows Point. I was always glad when some fellow boater towed me back to safe harbor. I'm sure this guy felt better when help arrived.

      @@BUFFDgaming The weight of the anchor isn't super relevant. Small anchors are designed to dig and dig harder as they're pulled. Ship anchors are only heavy to pull out the chain, and the chain does most of the anchoring.
      Here, they needed their anchor to dig, and it didn't. No biggie, it happens, but it usually won't correct itself and needs to be reset manually or it'll just keep dragging.

      Drop the hook before you're on the beach. If you're on the beach, you can not push a boat out by the stern. The bow is much lighter, and you will have much more of the weight of the boat in the water it will also keep the water going over the stern onto the boat. Also, when you're on the beach, it's not a tow it's a salvage. And it may not be insured. The boat stalled most likely from clogged fuel filters by stirring up the tank in the rough inlet waters . Drop the hook, carry extra filters, and you will not be on

    I don't know what kind of action he undertook to repair the Engine, but this is what I think happened.
    He was going with his boat for a nice trip on Sea, and it was some time ago he started it and he tried it at the port.
    Engine started quite fast, and run well, and the cooling was also working ok.
    Then he took the boat to the inlet, and the waves made the boat rock quit a bit, and because of that the sediment and dirt from the fuel tank started coming up and were quickly sucked into the fuel line on to the filters and in the carburetors.
    So the engine stalled quit quickly, and by repairing it it is better to go on your knee's then keep standing.
    When he finally drifted to the beach he could have repaired it there, but he was trying to push the boat back in the Sea.
    An Anchor would have brought the solution.

      Was thinking about that too, rough waves start stirring things, quick decision to turn and it stalls. But I actually had a factory all correct fuel line disembowel itself lately, probably due to additives that have become more common, sometimes you just never know, felt for that guy opening the engine hatch trying to see what’s what… yup that’s the engine, totally dead, check…

      I see a Danforth type anchor on the foredeck and according to a comment above it was dropped but the waves were too strong so the anchor dragged.

  • @anthonylonsdale

    The captain should have dropped anchor long before that boat was beached.

  • @JayL781

    I will never understand these people that go out and then just turn around. Either you know how to push through it or you don't. If you don't, stay home, or go somewhere else within your wheelhouse of experience.

  • @milleRC51
    @milleRC51 7 месяцев назад +2

    I'm willing to bet if they'd pulled the water separator and dumped it that motor would have started right up again. A boat that age likely has a decent amount of garbage in the fuel tank that got all stirred up going through the inlet.

    Losing your engine in those waves close to the beach definitely seems like a mayday mayday mayday moment. This could have been deadly.

  • @DrJohn493
    @DrJohn493 4 месяца назад

    I wonder how many folks in all the condos have their telescopes trained on this scene? In our coastal cruising days along the Florida panhandle in a Morgan 32 we were always prepared to drop anchor offshore if the iron sail failed and the winds weren't favorable for making it into St. Andrews Bay under the real sails.

    Allowing the beach spectators to stand behind that tow line wasn't ideal.

    • @jttech44
      @jttech44 7 месяцев назад +2

      These sorts of lines aren't dangerous when they snap. Steel cable you have to worry about, sometimes, and kinetic lines too, standard rope lines don't store enough energy to really be a hazard.

  • @captainwin6333
    @captainwin6333 7 месяцев назад +2

    Why didn't he radio for help after being unable to restart the engine? It said in the clip 45 minutes later he started drifting towards the beach. That was enough time for someone to come and help.

  • @KM.130
    @KM.130 7 месяцев назад +1

    I watched another clip of this same incident. He did try to anchor but he tried from the stern and not enough line let out. I don't think anchor ever caught. He should have deployed sooner and from the bow.

  • @tomtalker2000
    @tomtalker2000 7 месяцев назад +1

    I don't see how their is anything this guy could have done differently. Except for dropping his anchor immediately. It sure would have cost him much less money getting towed from the water. As opposed to the beach. But once an engine fails their isn't much you can do about it.

  • @ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958

    You need at least two good anchors with a couple hundred feet of line on each. Don't leave the dock without them. Get a fire extinguisher, flare gun, marine radio and epirb.

  • @michaelmeinberg2696
    @michaelmeinberg2696 6 месяцев назад

    This is why you should always have a kicker motor, espeically out in the ocean!
    And you are correct, your anchor is your emergency brake, the minute he chould not restart the motor he should have dropped it right there. They you have time on your hands to access the situation and work on the motor.
