LOST AT SEA - Our Atlantic Ocean RESCUE [Part 2]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 фев 2022
- Our sail across the Atlantic Ocean continues. We were on the home straight, everything was going smooth and then it happened..... We spotted a single handed French sailor LOST AT SEA. Having being dismasted and stranded at sea for 3 weeks with no engine, we spotted this dismasted yacht being thrown around by the fierce swell of the Atlantic.
In part 1 you saw us establish a tow with the stranded vessel and then.... SNAP the tow line broke which then became a regular occurrence.
We managed to reconnect the tow every-time. After countless times of trying to summon the help of the coastguard from various Caribbean islands, each time getting a refusal of help. We knew it was up to us to get the lost sailor to safety. That was the only thought in all of our minds as we battled through 6 meter seas with 40+ knot winds. "If this was in the UK the @rnli would have been here - a sentence we would constantly say to each-other"
After a sleepless night, with the help of our moral boosting egret "Rodders" we all battled against the odds to rescue this stranded sailor. It's strange to think, that even to this day, we haven't even spoke to the sailor that was lost at sea.
Whoever says that catamarans are not a "seaworthy" "blue-water" sailing vessel needs to watch the video. Coco our Fountaine Pajot Lucia 40 done everything we would expect from a seaworthy blue-water sailing boat.
You never know maybe @WarnerBrosPictures might want to do a film on our successful nightmare.
Haha! All jokes aside, we are happy everyone is safe. At the end of the day, we are all in this community together, and without each-other, where would we be?
Our goal 10K subs 😁😁 Every little helps, so if you enjoyed this vid. Please drop us a sub.

Welcome to our Sailing Vlog - Sailing Coco! After 7 years of renovating boats, we restored our Snapdraggon 27, sailed our 33ft Colvic Countess Monohull around the Med and then left London for good once we bought a Lucia 40 Fountaine Pajot Catamaran!

On behalf of all sailors - Thank you for saving anoither sailors life and his boat.
Thank you!! This comment gets to us every time 🥲♥️
@Sailing Coco I'm not yet a sailor, but just looking at the video, you are legends. May God go with you and may God bless you.
@@terryroth9707 ahh thank you so much! Means a lot ♥️
20 foot sea state and not a whimper from anyone. You all functioned as though the sea was less than a meter. What a great training video on how to focus at the task at hand without needless drama. You all performed well together. Wonderful care and concern for your fellow man. A great adventure story for sharing with others in the coming decades. Looked like the hand of God was involved too. :-)
Thank you so much! Thinking about it we used to overly panic on our old boat when we got into sticky situations and realised it didn’t help anything and made matters worse! I guess it all plays a part into how we managed to remain calm when it really mattered, something we’ve not thought about before so thanks for the perspective on that ♥️
Yes we were so lucky that the lines didn’t snap during the night! We would have still reattached but it would have been tough! Glad it all ended well in the end and thank you for your kind message!
As we were asked a few times this week, we have tried to make and publish part 2 of our Atlantic rescue a few hours earlier!
Editing this video brought back some many memories. Both good and bad, but an overall feeling of happiness.
We have received so many incredible, supportive and fantastic comments and messages from you all. We would like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!
We weren't able to meet the stranded sailor as he was unvaccinated and had to quarantine for 2 weeks in Grenada. As of yet we haven't been able to get in touch with him, nor have we heard from him. We have heard from others that he is doing well and safe and we believe a fundraiser was established to help him repair his boat.
We will either do a live stream or a conclusion video to talk about the entire event in detail. Let us know what you guys would prefer. A live stream or another vid.
Thanks again
♥♥
Legends. Life is all about helping others... Great karma. Let me know if you come to Western Australia, I would like to shake your hand and buy you a drink.
Ahh thank you!! We will def let you know if we are ever around there!! Will be great to meet you!! 😊
Another vid would be great. Maybe more of a q&a type video. You just randomly chanced upon the guy? Blows my mind
You guys are ABSOLUTE LEGENDS!!!!!!!!!!! Saving that man and his boat. Only fair winds and following seas for you guys from now on. I was literally on holding my breath to see what was going to happen.
And shame on a the Coast Guards that wouldn't offer you assistance.
aww thank you so much!! just doing what anyone else would have done in the situation!!
yes hopefully more chilled out seas from now on!! 🌊🌊☺
Thank you soo much again for your lovely message! We are shocked and blown away!! 😊
I am no sailor. Thank you for helping this man. This world needs us to help each other. Kindness and compassion for each other are far too rare but you have them by the truckloads. What we put out in this world is returned to us. I hope you receive endless blessings as you deserve them.
🤍
As an ex-member of Sea Rescue on South Africa's east coast I must commend you. Calm, resourceful, thoughtful, excellent leadership and minimising risks to yourselves. Brilliant and impressive.
Ahh wow thanks so much! Means a lot coming from your experience!! Really appreciate it!
Were you working in SA Sea Rescue at the time the Oceanos went down?
@@alison__16 No, that was long after my time.
As a British Jamaican, it’s literally every man for him self’ When you go back home to the Caribbean unfortunately . This video made me realise how lucky we are as Brits 🇬🇧🇬🇧When you call emergency services , they respond . Sometimes as brits we really don’t realise how lucky and privileged we are until you go abroad
I spent 5 years in small towns in china (2-5 million people), The most people do for you out there, is if they hit you with their cars, they drag your body out of the road and leave you on the pavement so they can keep on driving in the road. Ive seen things that really question if humanity is worth saving. videos like this pick up my shattered soul.
@mark That is so sad to hear!! Glad our videos can pick you up a little.
And yes @zoey we are soo lucky in the UK for the emergency services we have ♥️
The unwillingness of the Coast Guard to assist with the rescue, not answering their phones, showing total disinterest in a major emergency at sea, should be broadcast across the sailing community and maybe Trinidad and Tobago, Granada should be blackballed for at least a year and see if they will appreciate the tourism Dollars they obviously have taken for granted. Shame!
You guys should be awarded the humanitarian award of the year. You should be proud of yourselves.
THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
Yeah it was quite shocking to be honest!! Hopefully they can learn and become more reliable from this!
Awww thank you so much for your lovely comment! 🥲 Just doing what hopefully anyone else would have!! It was challenging but glad we reached a successful ending and that’s the main thing!! 😊
You have done some great work it is great to have mariners like you out there. However, do not be so quick to judge the Coast Guards response. I note they said they are unable or are not in a position to help. I would not be surprised if they simply did not have the fuel to make the trip. The pandemic has cut revenues across the board. but either way, it is a sad situation.
@@captaincrunchie8814 If I ever find myself in a similar position, I will take your advice and call my insurance agent and get his permission before I render assistance to someone in distress 100 miles off shore. I wouldn't want them canceling my insurance. NOT.
We had an engine failure off the Pacific Coast of Mexico a few years ago. No seatow, no RNL nor any coastguard serve that coast and at that time there was no wind to sail ourselves out of trouble. We asked passing fisherman for help but that help was limited to getting us to the beach. There was commercial traffic (tankers etc) well offshore but their help would similarly be limited to a personal rescue. Moreover the nearest cruisers were days away. Fortunately we were able to drop an anchor (we have a 500ft rode for such emergencies) and a local fishing boat got us to shore but what to do then? We were directed to the nearest port captains office and explained our situation to which they replied "not my problem"! You really are on your own out there - a good reason why cruisers often adopt a buddy boat.
You literally saw half the Grenadian patrol boat fleet on this video. They came out well beyond their territorial waters to rescue a random foreigner. And you want to shame them for that? Shame on you. How spoiled do you have to be to think that ANYBODY owes you a rescue, much less a broke developing nation with zero ties to the sailor, the boat, nor the patch of ocean he was on? I suggest you stay in your recliner where you can safely complain about things you clearly know nothing about.
mis respeto para la tripulación de su embarcación y la buena labor desarrollada por uds. soy un rescatista de CHILE, Valparaíso perteneciente al bote salvavidas de Valparaíso, gracias muchas gracias, que tengan un buen navegar
😊
Hand on my heart to you guys above and beyond the call of duty ,,well done splice the main brace 🏴🇬🇧🏴
Ahhh thank you so much!! Your comment is SO appreciated ♥️♥️
It takes a whole truck load of compassion and empathy to perform a rescue of any description, hat's off to you, you performed well and made an epic rescue possible. Humanity at it's best, no borders and lots of care for others. Let's hope the fellow sailor is prepared for his next sailing trip.
Thank you! 🤍
Well done indeed. Was worried your deck cleats would rip out. I for one would have moved heaven and earth to find you, thank you profusely, and compensated you for your fuel and damages. I once helped a French cruiser who went on the reef in Greneda. Never got a thank you from him either. I have to say it hurt a bit, but I convinced myself the man just went through the most traumatic experience of his life and lost his home. I was merely inconvenienced and my only cost was my time and a few cuts and bruises. You should be proud of what you did and know that your efforts are appreciated by your fellow cruisers.
Yes we were really worried when we tied the initial line, it was a horrible sound! Once we got the bridle rigged up it was much better but sometimes when we tie a line to shore the snatch brings us back a bit! But it'll soon pass and we were so happy that we were there to help the sailor.
Sorry to hear that you never got a thank you either.. it does hurt a little but at least we can sleep knowing we did our best and that's the main thing!! Thanks so much for sharing your experience too! It's comforting hearing a similar situation!
From my experience too...you just don't get thank-yous and i now realise its better that way. because you didn't do it for a thank you anyway. its more humbling that way I feel.
If you’re on the water and don’t go out of your way to help someone you shouldnt own a boat. Well done. I’ve been stranded , I’ve also been on a boat that sunk , and both times without help from strangers I would be dead.
Wow sorry to hear you were on the other side of it all before!! Can’t imagine how you must have felt during that time!! So glad you got help and yes we agree, it’s the unwritten rule of the sailing community!
This exactly! Mariners help mariners and if you don't you're not a mariner and you don't belong near the water.
@@IUsedToBeANinja4895 💯 ♥️
Absolutely. I have saved lives at sea now on three different occasions. One instance the guy waved at passing boats and they ignored him. I couldn’t believe it. Even though I was on a sailboat with deep draft. I risked running aground to rescue 3 guys clinging to an upturned boat. These smaller power boats could have easily rescued them. I stood mouth agape watching them go by.
@@fredread9216 this is one of the reasons I do love being the motor boat guy now and don't miss the sailing days too much, having a couple big diesels does make it infinitely easier to help save yourself or get someone else out of danger in an easy manner
Excellent seamanship, hats off to the crew of Sailing Coco. Honestly, a bloody brilliant job. Fair winds and following seas.
Thank you for your comment!! We really appreciate it!!!! 😊
Angels of the Sea ! Songs will be written, Drinks will be named, Gates will be opened….thank you for doing that.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, we’re blown away by all your kindness! 🙏🏼♥️
You guys operated in the true spirit of mariners Doing the best you could with what you had speaks wonders. This video also illustrates some of the shortcomings of new technology. I was a U S Coast radio operator in the 1960s and 70s and answered a number of distress calls on the old 2182 Khz from some vessels that were several hundred miles away. 2182 was busy and a lot of static but it was reliable and had tremendous range, especially at night. Bravo Zulu (military term for "Well Done") on the rescue.
Lt J Lentz
U S Coast Guard (retired)
Wow thank you so much Jerry! It means a lot to hear your words from someone in your profession! We had a few negative comments about our calls so we were unsure if we were asking for too much from the Coast Guards but comments like yours gives us more reassurance, so thank you 😊
Two ropes, fantastic guys. You know what you are doing 😊
I watch alot of sailing channels and regularly every episode. I don't click on new ones as I find it hard to invest in their story if not from the beginning and watched their channel grow ect. However the title got me and I am interested and hooked to watch this adventure from. The kindness I witnessed I'm a new subscriber and don't think I will have trouble adding this channel to my line up of regularly watched ones.
Ahh thank you so much!! We are so happy that you have subscribed and will hopefully be joining us on our adventures! Thank you so much for your lovely comment!! ♥️
Absolutely Heroic!!
Thanks a lot!
Wow. Good on ya
Thank you!!
Epic! You were meant to cross his path! No doubt 👍🏻👍🏻 legends!
Thank you so much for your lovely message!!! ♥️
It's what humanity is all about, helping others. Good on you!
Thank you!! Exactly just doing what anyone else would have! 😊
Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! congratulations!
The sailor was not only mad but also very ungrateful and unkind, he didn't even turn around to thank you and greet you. Bad person!
Thank you for your comment!! We did notice that at the time actually and thought it was a little odd!
WOW AWESOME SAVE!
Well Done!
Great Teamwork!
Stay close to God.
He will always have your backs.
👍🏼🌎😊🙏🏼💕⛵️
Thank you so much!! ♥️
God you deserved that cold beer! Respect to you guys!
You saved a life good job Cap and crew
Thank you so much Scott!
Shame on the coast guard! You guys are heroes!!
Awww thank you so much!!
How has this not gone 'viral' amongst the sailing YT community I do not know. What a story, amazing tenacity from all involved, beautiful humanity at its best
Thank you so much for your lovely comment!! We really appreciate your kind words! It’s gone pretty viral for our small channel! We can’t believe it ☺️
the major players in the youtube sailing community have their content for the next 3 - 6 months pre produced and already uploaded, if they see this today its gonna be a few months till this would naturally show up in any episode.
A truly amazing set of videos, if the title started with Rescue at sea, adrift for 3 weeks. That may get the views. It will go viral soon.
Usually videos do not do justice to sea state but with the boat in tow you can see the swell in all its dramatic power.
Yes we were surprised that it actually showed this time! As you say the boat gave it all perspective!
Another great video guys!
Thank you Steve Stevo!! 😊
great video, funny part was the bird under the table
Two thoughts. I have never been so disappointed (that is the nicest term I could come up with) in a coast guard service after listening to your communication with them. The other thought was how much respect I have for your actions and attitude. And your video editing was spot on. Wishing you nothing but success and happiness.
Thank you so much for your lovely wishes!! Really appreciate your comment and yes it was a real shame with the coast guards around those waters
Well done Coco alls well that end well a remarkable act of kindness on your behalf. Fantastic viewing and well documented, award yourselfs loads of browney points 😎😎😎
Thank you!! Always happy to help in any way!! Hopefully we will get calmer seas from now on and we’d be happy!
So glad you enjoyed the vid and thank you soo much for your message!!! 😊
Your all truly amazing
🙏🙏🙏🙏⛵️🌎💜
Thank you!! Was just at the right place at the right time!!! ♥️
BRAVO TO YOUR TEAM!! WELL DONE. GOOD THINGS COME BACK TO YOU WHEN YOU DO GOOD THINGS. GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU SAFE. ♡
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it!!
You are heroes. I'm now subscribed. I'll have to edit this comment later bc I'm too moved to properly express myself right now, beyond THANK YOU for helping him.
Awww thank you so much for your comment. Comments like yours mean the world to us and we’re blown away by everyone’s response! ♥️
Thank you from all the sailors
Thank you 🥲
Well done
Thank you!!
You guys were God sent, the sailor would have surely died if you did not come along. Crazy how the Coast Guard would not come out to rescue him.
Thank you!! Yes we were very surprised!
I was so relieved i had to crack a beer myself when you guys did :-)) I really hope you get some appreciation and thanks from the guy when he eventually understands that you were his guardian angels..
Hahaha glad you joined us for a beer! 🍻 yes we would love him to see the video! We’ve put ourselves out there so hopefully we can find him sometime!
CHAMPIONS!!!
Hahahaa thank you so much for your support Gee!!
Just catching up ... 😎👍🏼🧙♂️🇬🇧
Thanks!! 😊
So happy you document this no Words can’t say what wonderful people you are
Hi, all of you should be proud of yourself with dealing with the situation you found yourself in, handling the situation calmly and laughing and joking about it afterwards. Gary
Thank you so much! We've had a few hairy situations on our old boat so maybe that's how we've learnt to deal with situations a little calmer 😂 just glad we were there to help! Thanks again for your lovely message!!
You are a hero❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Araz!!! 😊♥️
They saved a life, not everyone can say that. They are big. How I would like to be there.
Thank you for your comment!!
...hats off y'all! 👍
Thank you!!!

Thank you Glenn!! It was a crazy amount of views on the vid! Hope you’ve been keeping well and yes it was great having Adele onboard!! Don’t think she was expecting the trip to be what it was though 🌊 🙈
Hi Alfie & Ceylan, Congratulations on a job well done with true seamanship skill and spirit.
Well done, you guys saved that Man’s life and you were incredibly professional. As a former military officer and a sailor I’d put you all in for tea and Medals. Congratulations to you all!
Thank you so much! We really appreciate your comment, especially coming your experience!! Thank you!
Felicitaciones totales, muy bien.
Your crew rocks!
Thanks!!

Thank you so much SV Amour!! Really appreciate your comment!!
Amazing. Living the rest of your life knowing that you saved someone else, someone who probably lost any hope, but hoping for a miracle. You guys were that miracle. I hope you connect with him and do a follow up video. Kudos again.
Thank you so much!! We really hope to meet him too some day! Maybe he'll see the video one day and reach out! 😊
Its scary how reluctant the coast guard were to help. Thank God you guys seen him 🙏👏👏👏👏👏
Yes it’s super scary and worrying as a boater! Soo happy we spotted him! 😊
Another great video you guys are all hero’s you all deserve a medal hope you are having a great time looking forward to seeing your next video 🇬🇧👍🏻😀
Thank you as always Ian!!! 😊♥️
We are loving the Caribbean finally 🥳
Wonderful wonderful job. Blessings to you all
Great job! Great video!
Thank you!! 😊
You guys are heroes ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much, was just at the right place at the right time doing what hopefully anyone else would do if it were us!! ♥️ thank you for your lovely message
You guys were amazing 😂God bless you 🙏.
Thank you! ☺️
Y’all are absolute legends. Props to the guy riding on a. Bow of a boat that looks to be no bigger than 30 foot in 20 feet of waves.
Yeahh they were huge!!! Thank you so much!!
Well done all. I’m a lifeboat helm, you guys did an amazing job (and well done on taking the common sense approach every time, ‘ no life is worth a cushion’ ) I’m sure the skipper will be in touch with his thanks. The risk to your own life to save him should not be under estimated. Lines under tension are lethal. You did everything you could to ensure safety. Well done 👏👏👏👏
Wow thank you so so much for your comment. Hearing your professional opinion has given us a lot of reassurance since posting the video and so glad that you believe we dealt with the situation well. Thank you so much for taking the time out to message us and thank you for the work you do too
@@SailingCoco great effort all round. If you ( God forbid) are ever being towed, a great way to reduce snatch is to tow the casualty vessels anchor. I can’t imagine how on Earth you could have explained that to your casualty though. Again - Well done all.
@@badgersupdate thanks that’s great to know!! We will do a follow up vid this week and mention what you’ve suggested so others can know too if ever in a towing scenario! Thank you!
Also great that you got him to put on his life jacket . In times of distress it’s too easy to let your guard down. It looked like he had made his own towing strop from the Jib winches forward in a loop. A great way to spread the load and reduce chaffing from the casualty vessels cockpit by paying out on one winch while winding in on the other (every 1/2 hr or so).
@@badgersupdate That is another great point! Shame we missed it and only saw this now otherwise we would have included this also in the video we just posted! We will probably do a write up about this on our blog at some point and mention this also. Thank you again!
Not quite sure how you ended up on my feed but I give thanks that it did. The part 1 of this epic tale was my introduction to your channel, quite the way to earn another follower. Not sure that I will ever find myself on an Atlantic crossing but if I do i hope that there are people like you all out there in the expanse with me.
Ahhh thank you, it was a bit of a crazy one! We’re glad you found us and thank you you for spending the time to watch us and we hope you enjoy our other videos too!
Well done you guy's
Thank you so much!! 😊
Thank you for helping this man !
A very sobering video and great to see the kindness of strangers !
As the Irish comedian Dave Allen would say, “ May your God go with you “
Thank you so much for your lovely message! Glad we were there to find him and able to help!! 😊♥
Stu… the king of One Liners 😂😂 Well done Moore’s you won’t forget that in a hurry 😧
Hahaha yes don’t think we will ever forget!! Thank you so much 😊♥️
Very Well Done!
Thank you so much!!
Well done great effort in a rough see
Thank you so much Alan!!
sailors that go offshore that unprepared become a safety issue for other sailors
Yeah, There defo should have been a few extra safety items on his boat. Flares, Handheld VHF, EPIRB etc.
For us our offshore comms (sat phone) was a MASSIVE help.
AMAZING !!!
Thank you!!
That sailor was most fortunate that you happened by!! Excellent work crew on Coco !! I just came across your channel a few days ago and I look forward to following your adventures!👍😃
Awww thank you so much!! We’re so happy we found him!!
So glad to hear you’ll be joining us on our adventures!
king neptune will be very happy to see your kindness .. 😊😊😊 .. 👍👍👍.. ❤❤❤
Hahaha that’s what we were hoping for!! Hopefully some calms seas and fair winds forever more!!
You are heros guys! What an ordeal for you! Nice to see you finish off with a drink!
Hahaa yeah lucky we had two beers and some baileys left! ☺️
Thank you for your nice comment!!
We all just expect the coastguard to be like the UK and risk their lives for everyone without any pay hats off to our lads and girls from the United Kingdom,
Yes exactly!! Their service is second to none!! We are incredibly lucky in the UK!
I only hope if we find ourselves in the same position we can do half as well as you guys. Well done and a lot of things to think about by way of contingencies and prep for similar circumstances. Brilliant. Just Brilliant. Well done.
Thank you so much, that is so kind. ♥️ Really appreciate your comment and glad it can help with your prep!!
Thank you, God Bless
Thank you
Guys you did an amazing job!!!! Thanks from the sailing community! Well done.....bravo! 🥰
That comment gets us every time 🥲 thank you ♥️
Weel done guys ! Cheers to all of you !
Thank you!! Cheers from us all!!
BRAVI RAGAZZI!!! You are heroes! And you'll remember this for life! Wish fair winds for you brave sailors
grazie mille!! We tried our best! Thank you for your kind comment!! 😊
New here ..but the 2 videos I've watched are awesome and u guys are hero's...👀👍
Ahh thank you so much! Glad you’ve enjoyed them 😊
True sailor spirit! Thanks a million for doing the right thing.
Thank you ♥🙏🏼
Can't believe there "coast guard" would not help!
Glad you found the man. We found an capsized boat with 2 men on top of it in the Gulf of Mexico one time. It was a very cold day and almost dark. They would have had one bad night if we had not found them.
Wow that is super scary! So glad you found those guys! Horrible to think how many aren't found
Thanks for this French guy (I am also French 😊)
I didn't read all the comments, and can not anderstant every thing you say due to my average english level.
I assume that people certainely told you that having a rope, then a chaine (for the weight) then a rope againe could have helped to reduce extreme tension due the waves. And maybe avoid rope breaking. The weight of the chain in the middle would have act as a tension absorber.
Anyway, you did a wonderful job! And you did great by using very long ropes to absorb as much as possible tension peaks.
Greeting from France.
WOW!!! bless you all for what you did ...
Thank you so much 😊 ♥️
Awesome job guy's 👏
Thank you!!
OMG ! You guys are amazing! We need more people like you in the world. ❤️
