Brings back memories of being tied up in simular conditions at the entrance of Port Pierre Canto in Cannes. Didn't get much sleep and eventually had to move to Antibes after nearly being set up on the dock.
I worked on these yachts for years, they pay very well. The crew are mostly English, Aussie, Sth African etc and $100,000 a year is not unusual. My average tip from guests was $2,000 USD
@@purge98 It's their job man, they get paid well for that. What do you suggest, to let it break on the rocks ? The whole crew will loose their job and never get one in the industry while the owner will get a new boat.
There were a lot lot lot of anchors holding that lady in place! Looks like the bow anchor still sat in its cradle. My brothers friend owns a bar on the beach in Mexico and he dives down and collects the huge anchors off a reef there. They get held fast and the crew cuts them off. He displays them in his bar. Has more than twenty. Some six feet tall. Must have been real digger anchors all along the port side and off the bow! I think anyways. Probably deployed by a small boat. Great job by crew and great video. Thank you for posting.
I hope the Captain sent a link to this video to the owner. It would be good for him to see how hard they're working to protect his yacht when he's not on board.
Because a thank you for a job well done is nice..............it give the employee the feeling of being valued. Which in turn motivates them to work even better for them.

Which means they take even the worst jobs, as with them they can for example ensure the survival of their family, which means they are useful to them.

And it gains you, as people will do their best for you, not do DNV (Dienst nach Vorschrift or work to rule) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work-to-rule If you don't do it, you will tell your people and employees that they are not worth the breath it costs you to say those two words..........

(Base rule in germany minimum of 10%, or keep the change, whatever is higher. So if you pay 118 € and give 120, and say keep the change, aka a tip of 2€ you're being a dick.

3:46 OMG!WTF!ARE!YOU!THINKING!!! 4:56 Oh. Ok. In my most humble opinion, the crew, performed in textbook fashion, what is commonly referred to as, "earning ones keep", flawlessly.
they're super useful.. whoever came up with the idea and patented it first made a mint!! I have two ski's and my local marina charges $1,000 a season per jet-ski for use of those.. big money makers! needless to say I trailer mine on and off at each use. lol
This is when a power boat becomes a sail boat and the crews learn what sailers already know, the wind and the currents will keep you up all night long.......all night long
In the direction the wind was blowing, the long line did not contribute anything and the anchorage point at 5:05 would not have held anyway. I think it would have assisted if the skipper started his engines and used them to counteract the heavy wind bursts, and also the side thruster at the ready. I also think that it was possible to lower the anchors and tie them to a floating bag and tow them to a position far ahead of the bows and sink them and then take the tension on the anchors. It things got worse the best thing to do wass to fuel up and move out of that restricted harbour, as the waves did not look that cruel, and it was only the wind that blew hard. Still one must admit that such situation was of concern. I have seen Royal Naval ships and aircraft carriers and oil rigs hire tug boats which while the vessels were at anchor the tug boat steams for 48 hours till the storms receded.
Obviously, it's not the captains decision to simply fire up the engines and go waste hours of fuel riding out a storm that once he starts he can't change his mind and redock the ship. And adding lines isn't a matter of "will it last" It's a matter of back up in case any one or more lines might break. I'd rather the crew put out 10 bow lines than stick with 2 bow, 2 stern and 1 stringer and hope they all hold.
The long line is there to help keep the bow from yawing from side to side. Eventually one of the bow anchors could pull out. Even so, I’d have a tough time relaxing if I was responsible for the ship as long as that storm blows.
You're a fool. And so are the 35 landlubbers that up-voted this comment. This is a pleasure yacht, not a Royal Navy Frigate, aircraft carrier, oil rig or tugboat. What you describe would NEVER work! The boat already has five lines out to 100-ton concrete blocks in the harbor. Tying anchors to a floating ball and tow them.... tow them with what? One of your tugboats? Fuel up and move out of the harbor? You'll never get a fuel truck to deliver on a day like that. It would be foolish to try to fuel up that day. When the wind blows across the water, it makes waves. Little wind = little waves. Big wind = big waves. HUGE WIND = HUGE WAVES. That boat never would have survived outside that harbor and it would have been foolish to depart. Imperial Princess: 40m, GRP, 250 Tons, 2x MTU 12V @ 3500hp = 7,000HP Royal Navy Type 23 Frigate: 130m, STEEL, 5,000 Tons, 4x 2,000HP Diesel Generators = 8,000HP + 2x 4,000HP Electric Motors = 8,000HP and 2x Rolls Royce gas turbines = 26,000HP. Can you understand now why the Imperial Princess shouldn't leave the dock?
I doubt it.. They were using that dock to walk the line along the docks to the final tie up location on the distant shoreline. But it did, (for a moment). Look, like they would leave it tied to that flimsy, modular clip together creation.
Doesn't a yacht that expensive and big have automatic station keeping?? In a major blow like that, why would they not use it? THEN tie off? That's how we did it.. and if the lines still would not hold, we put the system in full autonomous mode and just placed a watch on deck (pilot house/bridge) as well as an anchor watch. If things got to that point though, we usually pulled away from the docks into more open water before resetting anchors and station keeping.
problem is they too worried about being close too dock at stern......release stern lines and adjust mooring points/anchor to point nose directly into wind....if bow landline hets properly secured the that and the main stern line can be adjusted to keep bow to wind as opposed to a giant 60 foot by 200 foot wall.....
Some of us who do this type of stuff comment for analysis for our future endevors....trolls living in mums basement read comments and look to cause drama
Early on she was rather loose moored. Kept head to wind the resistance is minimised but if a headline went then a lot of strain goes on remaining lines. Holding the stern seems to be increasing the windage on the starboard side.Heavy starboard line they attached to the breakwater was rather important. Its hard crew work in those condition and they did well. Had an experience in Mallorca during a stormy night, two anchors set but was important to have engine running to reduce loading and potential to drag anchors. It was a frightening night hearing crew calling for help, we were safe but other not so. Nothing we could do.
What was the point of the extra bow line they put out? It doesn't seem like you could use it to resist the wind because it's pointing away from the wind. I don't see how that line could make the mooring stronger.
The "thick bow rope" did not help against the wind as the wind was blowing from a different direction. I count 5 mooring lines but he 6th "thick" one does not help against anything.
Doing a great job, but stupid they don't carry lifejackets. The current in the water is enormously powerful and circulating inside the harbor. Respect for he is putting the seat back on the jetski at 3.15.
I still think the best option would have been to take her out. Regardless of how admirably the crew acted, and a ship of her size still anchored in port as well as she was is STILL asking for potential trouble.

@Happy Cynic You must be one of those lucky people who are always correct. Like Trump. For the rest of us who are sometimes wrong you could offer more informed advice without being insulting. But it seems you want to be the type of person who would never pass up an opportunity to insult someone. Live your life as you must but do be aware that Even your good advise may be ignored simply because you are not a kind person.
@Happy Cynic thought that was Hillary. But to your point. Yeah, I did have a problem with that. I certainly do believe that a good portion of Trump supporters are deplorable but nothing close to a majority. And saying something that nasty will only alienate good people who take offense at being labeled bad. It is not a smart strategy no matter how you look at it.
Hi Javier. Thanks for this. I was really worried that the boat would tippy over because it is very windy and the water was very splash splash uppy. But it didn’t tippy at all. Just a little rocky rolling from side to side. I bet the rich fucks who own it felt the same way.

A harbour like this has a lot of ropes and chains on the bottom so anchors would just tangle, hence the mmoring lines you see at the front. Besides they have to be dropped at a distance and dug in by pulling them until they set.
It was flat calm and a bit windy but it identified itself as a storm. It's allowed in today's society apparently. I'm identifying myself as a lion now so don't argue with me. ROOOOAÀAAAR.
I think he should have our two more lines of the stern fired up one or two of the mains and went forward dead slow, that long line off the bow didn't achieve anything. Would of been better to use that line from the shore to the jet ski dock, so if that sorry looking dock doesn't get loose and hit the beautiful boat 😱
Do you not see the sideways movement of the boat. At one stage the crew at the front are so nervous over it hitting the ones docked across from, it that they run for the gangway to abandon ship.
it's not at risk of sinking but it's at risk of destroying the docks and much smaller vessels around it if it's not controlled.. I think they should've powered out at a lull in the storm and rode it out on the water, much easier than to try and control a vessel like that by hand. It would take a storm of the century to sink that yacht out at sea.

Rise for all of you.
Hi I'm not a boat person but why didn't they drop the anchors?
A harbour like this has a lot of ropes and chains on the bottom so anchors would just tangle, hence the mmoring lines you see at the front. Besides they have to be dropped at a distance and dug in by pulling them until they set.
It's common in the Mediterranean to moor stern to a wall or pier, with lines forward going to moorings on the bottom.

yep. after a direct hit from hurricane Michael last year everything else is merely a light breeze and a sprinkle.
I think he should have our two more lines of the stern fired up one or two of the mains and went forward dead slow, that long line off the bow didn't achieve anything. Would of been better to use that line from the shore to the jet ski dock, so if that sorry looking dock doesn't get loose and hit the beautiful boat 😱
You can't use a flimsy, modular, click together jet ski dock as a mooring point for a 40m yacht

I cant believe there are sea-doo sparks at this marina.
Its somewhat head into the wind that's a +
And that’s just the outboard
lmfaooo
¿Qué puerto es ese, que pone velocidad 3 nudos?
Marina Greenwich Campomanes
would probably be safer at sea with the bow into the wind.
with the sailing ship anyway
What's the story here?
A yacht is in an inner harbour protected from the elements and is not at risk....
Where is the story?
Did you not see how "protected" the harbor is from nature? No Harbor is immune from waves and floods or even winds.
it's not at risk of sinking but it's at risk of destroying the docks and much smaller vessels around it if it's not controlled.. I think they should've powered out at a lull in the storm and rode it out on the water, much easier than to try and control a vessel like that by hand. It would take a storm of the century to sink that yacht out at sea.
El barco esta amarrado muy expuesto al mar, pudo pasar algo grave si pierde las amarras de proa.
No es buen sitio con mala mar y viento

They are not using the most important mooring; The ''Spring''
