Today, we’re diving into the Marine Accident Investigation Bureau’s (MAIB) report on the 2006 Roaring Meg of Cowes incident, where two crew were seriously injured in two crash gybes that happened within minutes of each other. I’ll be sharing insights as a professional sailor, examining what went wrong and the crucial lessons we can learn.  If you would like to join me for more deep dives on topic’s like: MOB recovery, heavy weather tactics & offshore seamanship, check out: THE MARINER @ PATREON.COM To support the production of this material please consider heading over to Patreon where for $5 a month you can get access to all the extra content, including the narrated version of this video (concentrating on the seamanship, safety aspects & stories surrounding what is going on in this video), livestream Q&A’s, free consultancy PLUS merch, and exclusive sponsor sailing trips with CSM. Travel Episodes Solo, on an 80ft yacht in the North Atlantic.  After voyaging from Canada to the UK, CSM sailed the 80ft Gran Mistral ’Weddell’’, single-handedly from Southampton, UK to Reykjavik, Iceland. There he met a new crew. After sail repairs, provisioning and safety training, they set sail for St. John’s, Newfoundland; 1700Nm away. It was September and heavy weather was expected. What we got was a ’Super Storm’.

One of the most commonly referenced authors from the first half of the 20th century has to be Weston Martyr, and the book everyone compliments is ’The Southseaman’.  Available anywhere you stream podcasts: https://Themarinerslibrary.podbean.com/e/255-the-southseaman-weston-martyr-part-3/ Get a better deal on your next boat insurance policy.
