Crossing one of the most Dangerous Currents to South Africa | Mozambique Channel

Today, my crew and I will set out on a risky multi-day sail across the Mozambique Channel from Madagascar to South Africa. Feared in the sailing community, the channel is notorious for its unpredictable weather and violent wave formations. But what makes it especially dangerous is the Agulhas Current—an aggressive river of water running south along the South African coast. As we cross, it will push us southward, but it's hard to predict how much correction we’ll need. The real threat emerges when cold fronts from the Southern Ocean collide with the current, creating treacherous conditions and rogue waves over 30 meters high. Many ships have been damaged and even lost in these waters. ------------------------------------------ SUBSCRIBE to our Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5yQtWj1R--f7TCDpzZ5iXg?sub_confirmation=1 ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/sailingrippleeffect ------------------------------------------ Watch Season 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afaTfAmnuMs&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDK2c2YW8rr55wjvf74934g Watch Season 6: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-1Jkl4rCMY&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDu_xLN0JFnx-YX5lSgzXq3&index=1&t=57s Watch Season 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7IrEwJVnHI&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDG7tstlqR3O1M2fkQQT8-A Watch Season 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nsvIT8jNl8&t=131s Watch Season 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt7prknxHOA Watch Season 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z1OuEPXG-w ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/mararipple/ Follow Doc: https://www.instagram.com/docgastone/ Follow Gabi: https://www.instagram.com/gabiwaked/ Follow Alex: https://www.instagram.com/alexoropel/ Follow Berra: https://www.instagram.com/_____berra_____/ #sailing #mozambiquechannel #alguhascurrent
