Random question: why do they keep trying to get it 180 turned and bow first off? I'd think that the drag of the stern for a 10-100ft until clear would offset the effort to turn it around?!
@jlloyd423 Місяць тому
@@telluscitizen Can't pull it by the stern. The sand would pile up and either the hawser or cleats would fail due to the load. When you pivot the boat, it breaks the suction and gets the bow floating a little bit. Wave action gets up underneath the hull and gives the tow boat an assist.

The wheels and shaft that are buried in the sand have no where to go but into the engines. Especially with the waves, even if it came off the beach Stern first, the waves would cause the stern to dip and shove the wheels and shaft into the bottom with the weight of the yacht and push the engines right off the motor mounts and then the boat could be considered totalled. The worst that can happen pulling off the bow is the Shafts get pulled out the back of the boat and the crew would have to plug the stuffing box and Rudder posts with equipment already standing by for that situation.

I have seen people try to use a regular cleat and those pull out real easy. On that Viking that was beached I doubt that lift ring would be strong enough to be pulled off the beach and luckily the line snapped and not the lift ring. Lift rings are typically vertically tied to the keel by a stainless threaded rod. I doubt any threaded rod sold today would sustain the force of that boat pulling on the boat through sand unless it was maybe 1 foot in diameter.

@@tomwilliam5118 Correct. I watched this in absolute disbelief. Its a real lesson in madness. It was clearly not going to pull free from the front. As Bjorn said it has to be pulled free from the rear and as Tom says and I am sure Bjorn would have added a line from the front would be required as well. Connect a line from bow to one boat and a line from stern to second boat. Boat on bow should be on just enough throttle to hold tension on line and boat tied to stern should pull the boat backwards and as it comes free boat pulling stern should reduce power to idle to hold position and boat with line to bow should power up to pull the bow round into the waves. This will prevent/reduce water over the transom. In reality it would only need to be pulled back about 1-2m before the bow would be able to be pulled round which would not be far enough to risk too much water over the transom from the waves.

@@rski1036 - Nope, but there's no mechanical reason a drive train can't have neutral and let the anchor drop. Sure, getting a heavy anchor, rode, and chain back up without power would be difficult. But, that's something they'd have time to figure out AT SEA instead of on the beach if the windlass was properly designed. You sound like management at the company I work with.

@Texas240 5 місяців тому
How would you get airbags under the bow with the hull sitting on the beach? Airbags used to raise sunken ships can be attached to the sides to lift it off the bottom.
@daveplem 5 місяців тому
@@Texas240 I guess I’m talking about something that doesn’t currently exist, but it seems easy enough to design. Boats tend to be smaller at the bottom than the top. So if you had airbags that were sewn together sort of like those plastic airbags that sometimes come in Amazon boxes, they could be strapped around the entire bottom of the hull. If they are able to be expanded enough, they will form a donut around the hull, and since they can’t expand up, they will push against the ground, lifting the props, rudder, and hopefully, the keel up out of the sand. Like I said, it seems plenty easy to design and deploy. The airbags could even have attachment points for tow ropes. It’s just an idea for the next time something like this happens. A tool to add to the TowBoat quiver.

They should have immediately fixed the heavy blue line from the large tow boat to the Vikings anchor, established tension then released the anchor to its fullest extent as deep as possible. Embed the anchor on the sea bed to prevent the Viking from being fully beached by the incoming tide. Once the Viking floats and turns head to the anchor, use the heavy tow boat to move it into deep water.
@jimwoods9551 5 місяців тому
Excellent suggestion on using the anchor chain as a purchase. Deck hardware can be a bit delicate for this extreme force. Heroic work by the crews, but I feel they greatly underestimated the forces required and were only endangering themselves with a poor work plan and undersized gear.

The only system on a boat that would tie all mechanical systems together would be the fire suppression system. The generator fuel pickups are shorter so they would have run out before the main engines. Not likely bad fuel as these have onboard fuel polishing and redundant fuel filters.

Get a couple excavators and dig deep trenches on both sides. The sand in the middle will drop and wash out. Tie off two lines to the back of two boats, and pull it out backwards with ease. Has to be two excavators and two boats for it to work. They will have to do some damage to the rear of the boat drilling holes for bolts to fasten the steel clad plywood on the inside and outside of the Stern. The outer steel plate will have a suitable d ring to hook onto. Plan b would be submerging logs with d rings connected to chains with weights on the butt ends. the first one being buried under the stern if possible. Still pulling for the rear. Employ this method and that thing is coming out. If you're lucky, you may be able to pull from the front after excavation, and forego the more invasive methods.

Yes, there is a safer way to run lines back-and-forth. Put a guy on a JetSki and run at least two lines over to the stranded vessel. There are a lot of “jetskiers” (wave runners?) that go out in conditions just like that just to jump the waves. There are plenty of capable guys down there, who could easily have run those lines back-and-forth. Nice and safe, instead of putting that swimmer through all of that hellacious surf and shore pound. Wave runners and jetskis are routinely used in Hawaii for water rescue.
