BOATS CAUGHT IN DANGEROUS WAVES AT CAPBRETON INLET | BOAT ZONE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 січ 2023
- Similar to the Haulover Inlet, the Passe du Boucarot in Capbreton, France, is famous for its heavy shore breaks and some extraordinary waves.
Off the coast of Capbreton is a deep and large canyon due to the movements of large tectonic plates between France and Spain. The sea floor rises quite fast towards the coast, which explains why the waves can be so traitorous at the inlet entrance. Given specific movements of the entering and retiring tides, along with strong currents due to the canyon, and accentuated by large surf coming to shore, the inlet can become quite risky.
The original access to the harbor was only developed in the 70s with the actual inlet built as we know it now.
Regarding the port of Capbreton, it is the only fishing port in the entire Landes department.
There are three types of fishing boats in that harbor: caseyeurs, fileteurs and chalutiers.
The "caseyeurs" are boats that live cages on the bottom of the ocean, like the lobstermen would do in Maine. The "fileteurs" let long fishing strings in the wake of the boat, such as casual fishermen would do. The "chalutiers" (fishing trawler) are much more destructive to the environment. Trawling is a method of fishing that involves actively dragging or pulling a trawl through the water behind one or more trawlers.

Absolutely love the sailboat content.....and the information subtext is good too.... more please and thanks...
Thanks, will do!
Indeed, but the accuracy lacks.
Sailing boats certainly are more impressive and able to handle the waves and chop. Todays video was far better than the usual muppets with motors.
Thanks for watching Neil
Enjoyed this content, BZ. 👍
Many of these sailboats are under motor assist entering and exiting the channel.
Even the PETS have life vests on...Miami and Boco could learn a thing or two.😉
The only thing lacking are the credit card captains, and the self-absorbed twerkers here in the states! 🤣
Thanks 👍
This video makes it jump to the eye the much better seaworthyness of sailing boats when compared with motor ones of the same size.
Not everything is speed. I was once said that a good ship is that which safely carries her crew to the destination. ; -)
Of course I'm a "sailing guy"
You kept your word 💯. Love the sailboats. Thank you Boat Zone, you ROCK.
Our pleasure!
I joined as well. Do you have a patreon?
Thank you so much Adam. I see your blue badge! Check the description in the video for the Patreon link.
Ummm.... those are sailboats. Those are CERTAINLY not "dangerous waves" for a sailboat.
If you are entering the inlet in these conditions with a heavy boat the rudder may loose grip because the stern is out of the water. Then there is a serious risk of a broach which isn‘t a good thing in the narrow entrance. It‘s not so easy at all.
1:51 These are all displacement craft. They can carry unlimited weight with minimal performance loss. These boats weigh (displace) almost 20,000 pounds. When sailing normally (not over a bar with counter current and wind) these boats hit big, ten thousand pound waves, and smash them into spray and knife through them effortlessly, without spilling your long stem merlot glass... leaving no wake, just a few bubbles and whirlpools of wasted energy
Awesome!!! So good to see some sailing boats in here! These waves are not even near dangerous for what these boats can handle though. They are having fun.. look at them !
Nice to see the sailboats showing their seaworthiness. Would be interesting to see powerboats at the same time
Loved the Sailboats. Thanks so much.
Glad you like them!
This video shows how much better yachts can handle waves than any boats and how much more seaworthy they are than fashionable boats
Most Sailboats handle this sea state with no problem. Love the content.
So nice to see one of these "inlet" videos with sailboats. And what sailboats they are! Thanks!
4:55 Apparently motoring with auxiliary power (usually a small inboard 4-cylinder diesel on sailboats of this size), he's catching some waves and occasionally exceeding hull speed, significantly surfing along.
Love seeing something new other than Haulover. This is not all that rough for a sailing vessel. Not the same as a center console. Love your notes.
FYI There is a movie by Laura Dekker. She had to get permission from the Danish Government. It took her almost a year. She began her circumnavigation at 14.
Danish?
Dutch
Thanks for the sailboat video .
A few of your interesting facts
About sailboats are not to accurate. But the video does
Show that displacement hulls
Handle the waves much better
Then planing hulls.
Thanks
Generally yes. But planing hulls and keels can be combined for sail-surfing in the open ocean. It can be safe, fast, and highly exhilarating under the right conditions.
1:38 Six knots is fast when you eat crackers and cheese, drink some wine, have some drinks, eat a fancy dinner, sing some songs, go to sleep, take the next watch and find yourself 60 miles from where you started while burning no gas. Your range is limited by how many whiskey bottles you have aboard. All the while, it's quiet, water gurgling, music playing softly or strumming a guitar, trolling or swimming if wind dies, if wind gets stronger: popping queefs in the mainsail
Let alone the joy of helming an entire house that creaks and heels over and accelerates with some impressive toque when veering off wind :)
Also difference between “eh, we are just doing 5 knots” and “holly crap we are doing 8.5” is only something I could appreciate on a sailboat.
8 interesting facts about sailing boatzone wasn't sure about lol.
5 to 8 knots of wind does not make it easy to sail, it is actually harder to make good speed as the sails need to be trimmed perfectly.
Lots of monohulls exceed 9 knots and most medium sized boats sail best with winds between 10 and 18 knots and sail fast above that with sails reefed anywhere upto 25 knots.
Anyway.. i do enjoy the video as you see the better captains with lifejackets and some sense.
Kudos to bz , sails rules, the waves , the weather , doesn't get much better , makes me want to give up the farm , and sail sail sail away
Thx
Think twice.
@@HiTechNoir sorry too much salt in my viens to stay in land
w00t!! sails 😄 5:35 looks like a 2000-ish Beneteau Oceanis 40. The french make amazing yachts - it would be interesting seeing some Neels take on that inlet.
I thought it was a Grand Soleil which is an Italian make. I couldn't make out the name clearly. I think it's a 42. The French do make amazing boats. Amel. Garcia. The Italians don't do a bad job either.
Most Neels are located on the Med (near la grande motte, where they are built)
Love the sailboats ⛵!
Images magnifiques! Que des voiliers
Love the sailboats!
Looks cold 🥶
The dark blue Grand Soleil is beautiful
Yes it is. Thx for watching
Thanks! Cool
Most cruising sailboats are RCD cat A. Your weekend motor cruiser isn’t.
Sail boats may not be fast, but until you have experienced a fully powered up sailing boat at 8-9 kts with a balanced trim, you haven’t lived.
Loved the French bird. On the winch sitting to leeward, outside cockpit, wearing a long scarf, loose hair, no harness or lifejacket.
Sailboaters are much more in tune with the ocean than power boaters but it sure is nice to have the power and speed I have Captained many boats and power pays more than sail when you are doing it for a living
more sailboats please!!!!!!!
nice..
More!!
ヨットの機帆走が一番安定しています。皆さん良く理解していますね。
Sorry, the "crazy italian" isn't so crazy in did. The australian Serge Testa holds the world record for the circumnavigation in the smallest boat. His had 11-foot-10-inch, the Acrohc Australis. The jorney was describe in the book "500 Days: Around the World on a 12 Foot Yacht".
I love that you had to explain to your viewers that sailboats do go fast.... yay sailboats!!!
Looks to me like the sailboats are doing a great job of it 👍👍👍
Crossing any inlet can be difficult. The shallow water around the entrance\exit forces the waves to build and break. The great thing about a sailboat is the massive rudder gives you better control than a power boat when you’re surfing.
So where was the dangerous bit? You have no concept of the capabilities of sailing vessels.
What, nobody in Canada can afford a jib?
24:37 you wouldn't see a motor boat with a 9.9 trying the same Inlet.
Did Ange Blanc hit bottom 11:25 ish
Qua occorre un corso speciale per poter uscire da questo porticciolo dallo stretto davvero infernale perché imprevedibile😳🙈
My sailing boat with full main sail and the code zero is up going down wind we reach around 14kts
French have stile. Even without Quint 250 hp.
If you want to see what sails do to a sail boat in chop like this and why even on short hops it’s a good idea to deploy sails even if wind is scare hop to 21:49. Stability 😂is unprecendented.
What’s with all the French flags flying? And by the way, we have a Cape Breton Island( technically not an island,it’s connected by a causeway now, but when I was a kid, you had to cross by ferry), where the famous “Cabot Trail” is located. I’ve done it by motorcycle, it’s breathtakingly beautiful. 👍🇨🇦
This video was recorded in France
Sails up and motors on...no problemo guys, they track straight through the chop. Another day at the office!
You guys don't understand the difference between a V-hull and a displacement hull, do you. I'm actually shocked that someone didn't just sail by drinking a cup of coffee. The speed of a sailboat is limited to the theoretical speed design of the hull, fast racing boats have a very different hull design than a cruiser, too fast on a regular sailboat, it might just get sucked under the water, that's why "surfing" a sailboat down a wave can be so dangerous.
Maybe “Paul” isn’t really the fastest but someone “too young” set a record that “they” didn’t think should be recorded… like Laura’s situation. I call BS
This guy is clueless about sailing. Nothing to see here.
Stow your fenders when underway Captain 🫵🏼
The wise captain stows (or deploys) his fenders when he has plenty of time and space, and nothing else demanding attention. My fenders stay out until I'm miles out to sea and steady on a comfortable course, and on the way back they get deployed miles from the inlet. It doesn't hurt anything if they're out for an hour. Or three.
