CAPTAINS TRAPPED IN TERRIBLE STORM WITH IMPRESSIVE WAVES | BOAT ZONE

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.

Would you dare to navigate these waters in a boat less than 30 feet?

[@dont-want-no-wrench]

i would piss myself in those conditions

[@sunshiny_days.]

I've been out in similar conditions in a 17.5' kayak...challenging but fun!

[@monsterhog1118]

30ft sailboat no problem

[@BitwiseMobile]

I grew up on the beach (west coast - Redondo Beach) and I surfed from a very young age. I respect the ocean immensely, having had my share of close calls. One time that I remember very clearly was when we had some storm surge in San Diego due to a hurricane passing by back in '95. It caused a very large northern surge, and I thought I would take advantage of it. I was wondering once I got out there why nobody was outside. Well I soon found out why. First there was no form - it was like a washing machine - and secondly it was way more powerful than I had anticipated. Not only the incoming waves, but the back flow too. There were rip currents everywhere, and at one point I really got scared and realized I was way out of my element. I started to fight to get back inside, and had one especially large wave close out on me while I was trying to catch it to try to make some progress inside. That was scary because the wave was so tall - there is a unique break at Mission Beach due to a sandbar - and it closed so fast that I actually hit the sand bar as the wave closed above me and started rolling me around like a washing machine. I will never, ever do that again.

[@egidiomezzo7643]

Had a similar experience in Nazare when I was a child, and I wasn’t even into surfing. I told my cousin that those waves seemed pretty fun to swim into because it still seemed kind of calm to swim to a small thing that was floating in the water 50m away from the shore. For obvious reasons no one was in the sea that afternoon. And for obvious reasons there was actually a red flag hanging there. Man.. When the tide started changing drastically, that spot transformed into a washing machine sucking you back in the ocean. No matter how hard I tried to swim back to shore. Which left me with one more option because I started to get tired. Just letting a wave knock me out cold into the shore. When you find yourself in a spot like that, it’s hard not to panic without any experience with situations like these. Definitely never gonna do that again either.

[@Pigui900]

I spent the summers of 2016 and 2017 working at a surf camp in Moliets (which is a region very close to Capbreton, you can find it on Google Maps), and I traveled along the entire coast from Bordeaux to Cantabria (Spain). My job was as a driver, shuttling people from the camp to various cities. Those were the summers of my university days when my only responsibilities were studying and these summer jobs to afford some luxuries. I got to know the entire French coast and the Spanish part (I am Spanish, from the Canary Islands). I also visited this city, and watching this video brought back many memories since, as a driver, I used to pass through all those towns and cities countless times. I know that probably nobody cares, but in a nearby town called Vieux-Boucau-les-Bains, during the summer of 2016, I met a French girl, and we had two months of summer love. I am writing this because I want to share it as it fills me with so much happiness to have experienced that time, and it has brought back many memories (those summer nights at the camp with people from all over the world). I won't take up any more of your time. If you can, take the opportunity to travel and meet people from other places. After university and my master's degree, I am now fully immersed in "adult life," living with my girlfriend and working. But how beautiful those two summers were :)

[@Pigui900]

@@oscarcat1231 Hello! We continued talking throughout the following year between 2016 and 2017 regularly, but gradually we lost touch. Currently, we're connected on Instagram and occasionally exchange greetings (usually on Christmas and birthdays). After the summer of 2016, I returned to Spain to continue with university, and she moved to Vancouver, BC, where she currently lives with her boyfriend. On the other hand, I moved to Málaga (Andalusia, Spain) and also live with my girlfriend here. It was a beautiful summer, and both of us have good memories of that time. I think one of the most beautiful things was knowing that it had an expiration date since from the very beginning, she knew I was going back to Spain, and she told me she was going to Canada at the end of September that year. If we ever meet again, we'll have a coffee, and meanwhile, thanks to social media, we stay in touch in one way or another. I know it might sound a bit "Mr. Wonderful," but I like to make the most of all moments for things like this. If you ever have the opportunity to travel or make plans that are outside your comfort zone, do them. The first time I went to France (that summer of 2016), I hesitated a lot and almost didn't do it, but I'm really glad I made that decision. Thank you very much for asking. Writing all of this has made me remember and even look at the photos saved on the external hard drive from that summer. A hug! :)

So fun to watch the sailboats and fishing boats that were designed for rough waters actually in rough waters and to get a side and 3/4 angle views of how the boats reacts to the larger waves , very cool

[@RuyHosni]

The sailor in that "big" sailboat were too sloow to have response and too fast to turn. In a sailboat you almost don't need to correct the course, they do alone.

[@manfredschmalbach9023]

Going over a bar with breaking ground seas ain''t what You usually find out there. Why do boats leave the roadstead and go _out_ in a storm when no sheltered lee-side anchorage is available? Because in deep water, those steep, short, breaking waves can only build in strong storm-against- strong current conditions.

[@pwedza]

sailboats aren’t designed to be sailed in breaking waves like this. the boat isn’t supposed to be where it is…

I'm a fan of sailboats. If you have a reasonably large one, this kind of waves is no problem (you just have to have a bit of an idea what you're doing, as shown by the boat at 0:33). Going out for a bit of strong wind sailing, then coming back for dinner can be fun! :-)

@@charonstyxferryman on the boats I've been on, the helmsman also calls the maneuvers. He doesn't need to be the skipper, but while he's at the helm, he controls the operation of the boat. As you said, it might be different in a regatta, the skipper/strategist might interrupt him for navigational command, e.g. changing the course to get more speed or get closer to the turning buoy. You know more about teaching than I do. :-)

Entering Capbreton is obviously easier on the flood tide but the disadvantage is that you are carried up the canal by 6 knots of current with fishermen hurling abuse, and other things, at you as you run over their lines, even though there's nothing you can do. No wonder the harbour master gives visitors a complimentary bottle of wine.

[@virginiavanini8413]

I know zero about boating but some of the sailboat captains made it look easy.

[@HoseTheBeast]

Sailboats are really good in heavy weather. They are typically much heavier than powerboats of the same size so head on they push through waves way better than powerboats and because of heavy deep keels they stay upright. It is very hard to capsize a sailboat and if you do they pick themselves right back up. If you are caught in a seriously bad storm in a sailboat what you do is drop sails preferably drop a sea anchor to keep your bow towards the waves go inside and close all hatches. Even if your boat turns completely upside down it will turn back over. Shit will break thats for sure but it’s better than ending up on the bottom of the sea.

[@tedmorris1934]

[@sailingmananaMX]

[@marlspieker]

West coast of France.... typical waves at west to southwest wind directions around 7 to 8 Beaufort ... only to manage with motors strong enough to compete the waves and the currents. Best time to go in with the rising tide short before high tide.

The lads in the zodiac are optimists, the captain of the first yacht is a realist.

[@PDSalling]

I am a small boat sailor in Hawaii. Might I dare to exit and return to a harbor entrance so fraught with steep breaking waves? I have, in the past. I've also acquired a broken-back being pitchpoled, so, in the past I have 'dared' a lot, and usually gotten away with it. Usually, but not always. I am smart enough to KNOW how not to be broached. Be faster than the following sea, but not too fast. The water deals out some serious lessons. Books, and reading may help the uneducated to avoid disasters, or deal with them better after they happen. If you wish to become an ocean navigator, take it serous. Your life and the lives of your guests are at stake.

And I always get a kick out of the ones that attempt to leave then turn around AFTER endangering themselves in very obviously hazardous seas. Classic.

Once you get your sea legs, and the risk of sea sickness has passed, and you have confidence in yourself and your boat, it can be a perverse pleasure to get bounced around like this. At this moment, there are thousands of amateurs, not wearing government issued costumes or badges, crossing oceans in small boats in worse conditions than these. And they're doing it for pleasure, not money. But it's not confined to sail. Tens of thousands of people endure pain and exhaustion to run 26 miles as fast as they can in races that don't need to be run, or exhaust and freeze themselves and risk their lives climbing mountains that don't need to be climbed. It's part of being alive and not being afraid of either nature or their own shadows. My hat's off to them.

maybe it is "cold" there. no idea.

Or maybe the engine is running full throttle and is in need of some love and therefor is smoking a bit more then normal. or you are just right and the impeller is toast. I don't know. What I do know is that I am glad my marina does not have an exit like this. Pretty risky. I am not sure if this is most of the time like this or just in high wind conditions but this would not make me happy with a bigger boat. With a jetski or quick agile rib it is fun.

That first one was so close to broaching.

[@marianoschaller9066]

Why don't you build a braker in front of the main entrance???

The sailor should have come in with about 1/3 of his front sail. This would have given him stability and ability to steer. You can see a sailor doing that in the background 5:43 he knows what he's doing. That's a mistake for most sail boaters. They believe when it gets bad. Take in all the sails. Some will wrap the geona around the main sail and sit in the water with an anchor to weather a storm. BTW...the only ID markings he has is a French Flag. But I believe he still needs a registered name in US coastal waters. Ah...the frogs...

You gotta reaaaaaaaalllly want to go fishing to take a 12 foot Zodiac out in that.

I see people end up in the inlet water a lot on this channel. It always scares me because I'm used to the Indian River inlet in DE where if you fall in they are recovering your body. The undertow is so bad it will pull you under even with a life jacket.

[@BikingVikingHH]

Nah, undertow doesn’t pull down and submerge buoyant objects 😂

[@spookie3000]

​@@BikingVikingHHoh yes it will, if it is strong enough. Been there, done that. No fun.

​​@@spookie3000in a low head dam or wier, or a boil/whirlpool yes, not in a channel outflow or beach rip current
