Machtlos! (Wir verlassen das Schiff) Stärkster Gezeitenstrom Europas

short and high waves listening to people thunder it was just a really bad night we left our house we are Anna and Melina two girls with a sailboat and after two years in Scandinavia and four months in Norway nmw we finally established the course we want to take towards the south, the heat with the boat is a long way and, above all, it passes through challenging maritime areas, the North Sea, the English Channel, the Atlantic, we can expect more wind, strong currents and metabolic waves and, to be Honestly, we have a lot of respect for that, but now we are ready for new adventures, new seas challenges and we will take you with us after last week's event where we saved some refugee families from distress at sea.

It is incredibly difficult for us to continue browsing, images keep appearing in our heads and we find it difficult to pass the time. To enjoy French Normandy and above all capture it for yourself, we have now sailed from Bologna to Le Havre via the app and ficomp and now we are in Cherbour, here we are preparing for the most difficult parts of the entire Canal of the English Channel and we are ready to take you with us again, so come on, let's cross one of the strongest and most dangerous tidal currents in Europe for us. Now we head out of France to one of the canals.

The islands are our first destination and we don't have a Gastler flag that looks like this and that's why we have to do it. Now we just do a little crafting, so now it's being sewn, just a quick moment to straighten the fabric, all aboard 1 people, the Channel Islands are close to the French coast, but they do not belong to France, they are directly subordinate to the British Crown, that is where we are going today, it is going to be quite demanding because between Aldenay and the On the French coast there are very strong tidal currents, I think up to 9 or 11 knots, so you have no chance of going in against.

You have to take that into account. We hope we did. We leave in exactly one hour. We will see if everything fits, we will surely be extremely fast, although in these Turkish places it probably won't be very windy. Also at Cape Arg there are supposed to be blatant drops and some kind of turbulence, so we are very excited to find out if, and even if, it is actually flat today. You can see you should expect waves, it's pretty crazy, we're excited because I'm with people like that 10 minutes before the start and Anna just finished. Now please take a look at it, hey, it looks exactly the same, where is the other one?

You know what? Now we're leaving folks, we've left Cheburt, you can still see the harbor somewhere and yes, we're sailing at six and a half knots, 11 knots of wind, sailing upwind and we already have a current deviation of, I think, 20 degrees and it was said that here you have to go very far north. The current not only moves towards the destination but also towards the south. We are definitely very excited but we have very good feelings, it is and it is super super fast. We have until 7 p.m. m., which is always a bit stressful in intimate waters. all at 7 p.m., when you have five hours, we have to run an average of 5 knots at 25 miles.

I think we'll definitely make it so the water here still looks completely normal, no overflows or crazy flow lines or swirls, let's take a look. the cup ahead, there are still three hours left, about two and a half, and everything should look completely different and Anna makes the other side of the flag a little happy with the result. Now we are going seven knots. I think everything is happening now Hit, so we are definitely going to run at breakneck speed. Here you can see the displacement of the flow, the red line is the heading over the ground, so what we are actually heading and the blue one is briefly through the water.

So what kind of direction do we have to do to land there? The book looks there and we continue driving like this. It's supposed to be even more violent, but it's crazy because we're just getting over the fight and there's definitely going to be more. people, it's starting, I don't know if you can see it on the camera, but the first swirl is not strong at all, but here the water looks a little different, so it doesn't look like that yet, maybe it will get even stronger, so you can see that, you can also see that there is another edge of the flow and it is simple a wave that comes there, but with the wind it is not bad at all, the flag is finished and we just wonder why today is a no, today but two ago days was a particularly sad event for the kingdom because Elizabeth II died the queen the queen and in fact she was in surgery even the French flag and the flag of Great Britain were at half mast and we are currently wondering if they are up and at half mast and we We asked if we should also put them at half-mast.

But that is part of the kingdom or not, they are directly below the crown, yes, but very special and crazy. We're sailing there right now, I actually thought we were just in France but we hadn't even had it on our radar that the Channel Islands don't belong to France but to England, Britain, and to be honest, they don't really start well with all these flags because they also tell you something, well, there is the English flag, which is white with a red cross, then there is this completely normal one with this yes, like a star, in reality, it is white with red and blue but the English one is completely red and then there's a little corner at the top, this star and us and sometimes it's also available in blue but it's actually England, yeah, so what I know from the football shirts, so without England, yeah , only England, the help of England from London and therefore the flag of Great Britain, we will not go there for the moment either, firstly now to the people of the Channel Islands that Set Sail there is no longer any wind there is a quick tip thinking about how fast we are seven knots what must they be I mean we're not doing anything look at the signs 7.7 knots 7.9 knots 8 knots people can you hear that 9, 2 10.3 knots top speed even though we can't to see the most difficult place here is exactly the lighthouse and unfortunately here they are almost 90 degrees off so the island we want to go to but the taxes are completely elsewhere dear people, by the way At the time when there is a full moon , which means that the full moon is responsible for Erwin's flood and the fuller the mouth is, the stronger the tide, the tidal range and therefore the current and in the we have such a fat reed book called district guide.

All the box here and there just says that you shouldn't drive around this piano during the spring tide we're having now, but then you'd have to wait 10 days or not. know when the next new moon will be in 14 days, you should definitely not drive when the moon is completely full, yes, and is it simply inauspicious when the moon is completely full? That's maybe why it's so extreme today and, by the way, why we had the engine on because there was no more wind and we were with that because that's not how we are. We didn't make any more trips forward, we just drifted to one side with the current, yeah, we just I don't get there, no matter how far I drive there.

Come on, now I have to drive here too and we just end up there. That's crazy and that's why we have the engine running and we certainly won't turn it off anymore. We will be here in an hour, 40 minutes, it's going very fast, the island is coming so close, it's crazy but very, very quickly, very briefly Guys, before the video continues, I would like to tell you something and that is that our calendar is available up for pre-order in our online store and won't be for long. It is from us to you with the hottest and most impressive landscape photos that we took in Scandinavia and which are only presented very briefly because after that it will no longer be available, which means that now you have the unique opportunity to get your copy and if not You only need one but you also want to give one, then get two because then there will be one signed by us. a signed print of one of these three and we will also write your personal Christmas wishes on it, which means check out the kalender.de store and now have fun with the rest of the video and get the gifts for your favorite people.

There is the island and something is accumulating behind it. In ten minutes rain is forecast according to Apple, we will know the weather, let's see, not because the rain bothers us, you know, we were in Norway, so we no longer mind having to deal with the rain, but we don't want to have rainy soils here. We have also read here that high and what they call it, short and high waves should form in a very short time. , so we don't feel like it at all, so we're going to speed up and drive quickly towards the bay.

It's also not that safe because today there is a strong wind and there are moorings, so there is no safe harbor or anything, just moving the boats in the open box, quite open, definitely in the direction of the wind, but we are in a good mood. We're in a good place people, we had the worst night here on the moon, but for now. we can get there without problems, we still have a lateral shift and now we are putting our little one here, our quarantine flag and our Order flag made by ourselves, okay Definitely wind 14 15 minutes I think the wind is coming from there and the rain is coming from of that so we hope there are no storms the french flag lowers au revoir dark lighting environment I think it's not just rain if it's also in front now It's raining it's also a storm we just heard thunder so guys, we're almost there we're already at 17 knots so it's building up more and more um but we're almost there please keep your fingers crossed that everything goes well and so on.

Then that movement comes. Our enthusiasm is not unfounded. This area is one of the most dangerous in the entire English Channel and the English Channel itself is one of the most demanding maritime areas in the world. Several boats have reported to us that they have not made it to the harbor entrance and are just drifting along and are lurking on shallow reefs, it can get very dangerous quickly if I have eight knots of current pushing towards the rocks and the engine can only turn six knots at full speed, it's clear you have no chance. , you quickly become a toy of nature, which is why we choose a simple wind window and would like to avoid unexpected storm gusts that can quickly reach 30 knots.

Unfortunately, we made it. It's windy, so a storm is coming. Storm whatever Yes, we are hanging here from the buoy and we hope it lasts. All this because you look at the open sea and there is an open North Atlantic and the wind comes from here, so we think we are better off here than those back there. most of the big boats and here only a few fish, but they have the best idea and now first we eat without eating anything all day, we buy rice with electricity and here is a colorful curry, slices of vegan chicken in soy sauce, our trip, you can see as you can see with the food exactly and if you want to order something there is also the live ship code there 5% discount I think you call it normal yes, treat yourself to something delicious, we will definitely celebrate very well and that It's something we at Alany will know very well because we're in the UK now, that's how it's done.

You see, it's very difficult to get in here and it's supposed to be difficult for others, my tip is 30 knots sometime. Yes, you can see that the waves are coming here, but it's okay, the wind has died down again, so let's hope that we spend the night and understand well, I think you won't be able to sleep as well and so if it breaks above, but whatever the island is tomorrow We will check it out, we are very excited, I hope to be able to get the drone up at some point, but it is supposed to be quite windy, so we will stay here tomorrow. and then we will be fine, it is not over yet with the strong current, then it enters this strong street, so in this ordinary race story again it is as current as today or even more who knows, actually now we are in the middle of the English Channel and today at Apple The weather was already in the North Atlantic as a location, unfortunately it got much worse than expected even though we were in land cover, it was getting less and less at night and, above all, more and more further.

The swell was coming into the bay which caused our boat to roll properly and we just couldn't sleep, people had the worst night here on the move. Unfortunately Boyle comes in quickly so it's not as appreciated as we thought because the wind direction is definitely very bad because we are lying on the side of the wave and the wave is really not small. It was just a very bad night. How much did you sleep? I had two hours or so. Maybe I can't get completely angry. Definitely. I shouldn't film you yeah now we just rode it which was cool because it felt like we suddenly wanted to ride a boat it was easy.

Really stupid but we just have to build it and get to land and we don't want to stay on the side of the wave anymore. The wave comes from there, but the wind comes from there, which means it always flies like that. when we reach a second moving buoy. With the trick, then we will place it in a part to choose, thatis what we're going to do now, it's pretty wavy who's doing this here. I'm a bit of a better partner, unfortunately I have to admit. As you can see guys, we're lying on the side of the wave that's coming from there and it just rolls.

Yuck, if we put our stern behind it now, then it should be a little quieter, I hope we try it, you guys do the same. a red one, you get it a little bit, but the stern line didn't help much either and we know it's going to be a lot windier the next night and it's supposed to get wavier, we both start to feel really bad as soon as we're below deck. We cook, we read, we work on the laptop, we feel bad in the bunk, we are thrown around like in a washing machine, a little less we feel trapped on our little island, but there is still a chance to leave it we can't wait more because a storm can no longer catch us we have to decide now if we will hold on or if we will abandon ship people It is the first time since Rostock that we leave our home, not because we want to but because there is too much storm for us.

We will never imagine that we are lying here in this bay so unprotected that we don't sleep all night and that's it again in these 10 more knots. and it should be like this the waves then come in here very actively and it starts slowly yes and we really don't feel like it, I'm sorry, but I'm already on the verge of dizziness, we just tried to sleep again, there's no chance of lunch time and we'll be picked up by the water taxi right away, hopefully we'll get to them, yes, it will come and don't say no, that's too stupid and not enough for me, but then we'll try something like a bed and breakfast or something.

There's no way I'm looking for anything here, so yeah, I already said I'd rather be homeless tonight than sleep here, I can't do it anymore, man, that's so sick. , well, here we go, the main thing is that I can pay for the water taxi with euros, friend, I want to be picked up, I don't care, I pay everything in the name of Taxi, everything, no, what a taxi everything. the name of the taxi that surfs Wessel hefendi please be online please be online please be online that was so clear old proximity water taxi this is surfing all the name what attaxi is being sold also ais let's start and monitor people from the boat we have I found a place to stay, come in, it doesn't look like a little park bench at all, but yeah, we only have one bathroom and we found the breakfast very nice English style.

The room looks super nice, really nice. We paid 100 pounds 15 €. and I think there are only three or four accommodations overall on this side or no really great bed, nice, wide, you can have a good time, throw it in absolute luxury, people, it just doesn't wobble, that's the worst thing or there are just too many . There's pictures in it, so guys, dude, what I'm going to do tonight, take a really nice bath and we're here on Main Street, so exactly, yeah, and now let's go see the island. I'll show you some video photos. See you on board and then we'll see if Vandelli survived this stormy night.

Fingers crossed for the numbers, by the way, we just gained about 20 pounds that night, so yeah, it's all good. Expensive fun. My stupid decision to Drive closer, but now we are making the most of it and now, no new decisions, I mean, it's great, let's go to Seamanship or Sea House, it was an absolutely wrong decision to go to this island with the strong forecast of wind, we would have chosen one. We had to decide on a safe harbor, but we hoped it would somehow work out. We put our interest in travel above the safety of the boat.

It was clear that the boat can always handle more than you and we got stuck in two moulinbowjen and the The fishermen here are definitely there all year round Location, but it still could have turned out differently, it was a wrong and expensive decision and it is still an island very impressive with unique flora and fauna. Three days in Eldeni that we will not forget so quickly. All went well. He returned on board and had another very difficult night yesterday. Now it has finally calmed down, but now is also the time to set sail. Fortunately, we have survived.

Why now we are waiting for Jensy Gon. You can listen to what is said, but first. one of the most dangerous tidal currents in Europe is really now off, honestly yes, why should I read on Google yesterday?
