Broken and Stuck Blocking the Ferry - Season 4 - Episode 5
On this episode of Yard 2 Yacht:
We’re broken and stuck blocking the ferry, and the ferry isn’t slowing down. The harbor at Horta in the Azores is crowded. Most boats crossing the Atlantic west to east stop here for previsions or repairs. Our boat needs both. But first we need to get our anchor off the bottom. The problem seems to be the windlass. Captain Frank apparently has experience with this because he quickly pulled apart the switch and cut the insulating material off both wires and instructed Monica to hold the bare wires together. Is that safe? We’ll find out soon enough because the alternative is getting run over by the fast-approaching ferry. Yikes!
