Adrift - TOTAL STEERING FAILURE Mid-Ocean | Sailing Florence Ep.204

Woken by an urgent air horn blast in the night, the steering wheel spins uselessly, and we find ourselves adrift at the mercy of the ocean waves. The disconnected rudders slamming back and forth as the steering chain has snapped in half. Ocean sailing is more about boat maintenance and fixing skills than sailing skills at times. This video is the end of our Atlantic Ocean Crossing on the Catamaran.
