Lussinpiccolo, passaggio di Privlaka con bora, onde e corrente: si attraversa col brivido

- Raffiche di bora, mare mosso, correnti marine pronunciate: condizioni tutt'altro che ideali per attraversare l'istmo di Privlaka, a Lussinpiccolo, lo stretto canale che collega il Quarnero con la baia della località isolana (per intenderci, dov'è situato il ponte girevole che si apre due volte al giorno). Nel video girato la mattina di giovedì 22 agosto, ecco i temerari diportisti che affrontano il "budello", rischiando ripetutamente (e in qualche caso non riuscendo a evitarlo) di toccare le sponde di cemento con le fiancate della propria imbarcazione. Il tutto sotto gli occhi di una piccola folla di spettatori spaventati. Fiato sospeso e brividi assicurati. .
Pretty impressive helmsmanship, especially the first sail boat.
the third guy said screw it and pinballed through. lol.
the local glass fibre repair shop guys must roll up to work in rolls royce cars
A majority of a sailing boats there are actually a rent ones (1/3 of the world sailing fleet is placed in that area),
which make those tasks for a part time captains even harder a lot of them overestimate their own skills.
Hahahah
Lol
They’re the ones that designed the channel to be only 2 feet wide
They're probably the same people who stipulated the width of this channel.
This is great video, thx. fr sharing and keep going , greetings from Canada ✌🍁💕👌
Ovo je sjajan video, thx. za podijelu istog i nastavite, pozdrav iz Kanade ✌🍁💕👌
I am the Skipper of the blue yacht. It was nice!
you did a great job actually, hat down
@@endangeredanimal5749
Wow gorgeous yacht , what is it ! Great skill btw where is this crazy entrance?
Im leaving right now for a race on San Francisco bay ! My marina entrance has a bar on it which in my experience in much more dangerous, I can ever seem to get past the bar without me and my crew taking some damage.......to our livers🕺
Well done
@Jakob what rubbish
@Jakob Perhaps if they are running for worse conditions. However, a powerful responsive electric bow thruster like the blue yacht seems to have had is a huge benefit, especially if it was computer controlled to wallow a straight line. :)
Maravilhoso e para quem é de família de velejadores um desafio gratificante e lindo. Adorei !!!
Me and my kayak gonna make that look like the Suez canal incident.
Niiiiiice
Definitely Sam :o))
I alway thought the Suez Canal was wider than that no wonder that supertanker got stuck!!!
lol it is this is just for small boats
Lmfao
Mali Lošinj is a town on Croatian island of Lošinj, in Adriatic Sea. It has a large natural harbor. Channel is a shortcut to get to the harbor.
Esos pilotos, que son unos máquinas... Bravo
Quante volte son passato da lì, che ricordi e che manovra il velista!
Great video
Running the gauntlet! Gotta come in at high speed to maintain steering way and reduce the wallow from the sea, takes balls!
and a whole lot of fenders!
high speed, great damage
Done a similar thing with bigger following sea, about the same width under the water before keel impact, but a couple of feet of water on top of the rock on each side so you can't even see properly where it is, full throttle and working the wheel like a drift kiddie, and unlike that one, right angle 90 left after the entrance, off the throttle at JUST the right moment and full lock, then straighten and relax :-D fun, but nerves of steel definitely required :-D
What have ‘balls’ got to do with this?
@@jeremypyner8593 It's an expression, women can have that type of balls too, if that's the weird angle you were going on. Same exact expression in Spanish: No tienes cojones = you're a coward.
Might start a panel and paint shop there
No kidding. Tough for a sailboat.
Beautiful!
I can tell you it’s infinitely harder to bring a sailboat through that than the same size powerboat
For a number of years, I wintered in a port with a narrow entrance channel like this, though I never had to cope with quite the swells and current as this one. On a sailboat, one has to come in at full power at max speed or you're done. 1:52 Looks a bit like PIO's (pilot induced oscillations). A tiller is so much easier in this situation (which I had on my 30-footer).
You are absolutely right! With steering wheel you loose information where the rudder is currently pointed + they take more time to change direction. Thumbs down for steering wheels
@@Bakanellionly if you don’t know what you’re doing
The first sail boat captain was well ahead of his boat, great helmsmanship. The second sail boat captain was chasing the controls, hence hitting the bank several times.
Imprezionante!
This passage was deliberately made that ridiculously narrow just for spectator entertainment.
666
Wasn't, that's only type of passage state coul afford to make at the time it was made. These people are no amateurs, in my 35 years of living here I never heard a boat crushed into the shore in this part. During summer many old guests come here and they know how to handle it. Thank you
Ma no questo è il canale che divide Cherso da Lussino
...when you get a round of applause for not hitting the wall......
That second, white, yacht was making some alarming angles
you loose steering with that much of a tail current, its like balancing a small ball on a bigger ball
Hit at least once, maybe twice...
Let alone the wind, that current would have driven me into the bank for sure. I think the directional current underneath is so much harder to navigate than the tangible wind...especially if the current was bouncing sideways off the rocks.
The Italian counterpart to the Haulover inlet :D
It is Croatia.
Haulover isn't that bad, its just the tools that go through it.
This is worse than Haulover. No room for error.
@@gorankapor1926 until we come back :) as friends
Grande manovra il velista 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
is this slack tide? im assuming it is since everyone is rushing to get in. Id hate to see that tiny channel during peak rise or ebb.
That's some supreme helmsmanship right there.
Bravi ragazzi
I'd look for another anchorage in that weather....
01:50 Imagine the fear they did go through😱
Yes why the fuck would someone go through that in a weather like that?!
italian bravo, bravo, brafakolomisimo
I was going this channel once. You get sucked through it by the current. It's really scarry. Our skipper said, that's actually not so difficult. You just have to make sure to enter at the right angle and not to stear too much once you are in.
I think if I had a sail boat I’d put the tiller handle on. It’d be way more responsive then a huge steering wheel.
Cool, and watch out on this place when you getting in this.
Like a boss
Why no cats?
A beautiful sport
Bellissimo 👍 new friend
Don't be gentle, it's a rental ;)
mamma mia ho i brividi.........
They could have taken the longer route and avoid the canal in this weather. Though if it's a rental they probably don't care.
Mini Suez Canal
Cazzo quante volte ci sono passato❤❤❤
I think I can cross there with my kayak! :)
if it were twice as wide it would be even more difficult... bravo to them all....scratches make for good stories after hours at the dock !!

third one had me sweating. that canal is way too narrow.
Show the inside of the harbor please
Hoppity hops! Lots of Hoppity hops...
I'll have a pint of what the guy in the last boat is drinking !!!!!!!
Who knows, what is this place?
Simple as a camle passes through the eye of a needle.
Gerard.
Who built this Channel? Where is the brakewater on the enter?
Needs a jetty to stop the rough ocean from coming into the canal.
This is the spot!

With Bora, Wind from NorthEast not very funny!
😉
They are fenders if you don’t need them and bumpers if you do?
What a f-ed up place that is, real ingenuity designed that place1 Wouldn't want to buy a used boat from there.
A majority of a sailing boats are actually a rent ones, which make those tasks for a part time captains even harder a lot of them overestimate their own skills
About buying a 2nd hand boat: It is actually one of the best places in the world to buy a sailing boat because they have almost 1/3 of a world sailing charter fleet, the prices are good.
The Osor Channel was built by the Romans.
Dale you gotta be either American or Australian right?
@@claywebb8199 I'd say he's more stupid than anything else.
@@kixigvak it's not the Osor channel, it's the channel at Mali Losinj. The Osor channel is wider.
Nerve breaking😬😳
They could have just gone 10 miles south and and then back up north the same distance, and avoided what might have been thousands of dollars of repair work. Would also be interesting to compare the hull and keel design of the two sailboats. This was off the coast of Croatia.
Only in Italy. I would have bounced off those walls like a Pinball🤓🤓
Well, it is not Italy. It is Croatia.
@@gorankapor1926 Whatever. Same thing. Chill out.
@@willsmovies8330 Huh?? Learn some geography...
.....canale più largo noo?....🌝...e fasciatura laterale copertoni. E le mule?
Those ppl filming and waiting for a disaster that they can post on Facebook.
Yep.
And I'd love to watch it.
Nice of all the people to gather for the afternoon to see which boat will bite the wall..🥴 I guess not much else to do in that town.
People are watching because traffic is stopped when the bridge was raised for the boats. And no one ever crashed. Bigger boats and those unsure go longer route around the island
That’s. Crazy. He hit his boat. Twice. Crushed it
Más porque un canal tão estreito?
You couldn’t have this in the United States there be so many rules and regulations laws and guidelines and a toll gate at each end
Where is this
The fellow at the helm in the white sloop might just as well have been sailing by himself. His crew parked themselves in the cockpit. Surely they could have been more useful have they been on the deck, ready to fend off.
You idiot ! Fending,off an 8 ton yacht in those conditions? Really ? ...
you know fuck all, about sailing. Best way to snap an arm !
@@maxflight777 that was a rather nasty reply.
@@rogerl7533 it was B I apologise wholeheartedly.
I apologise. Covid hysteria puts me an an abrasive mood.
@@rogerl7533 I won’t change the wording though otherwise your reply will look out of place.
Just be aware you can’t fend off with 9 Tom’s of yacht !👍
I have have done that too. Lost a fender and saved the boat. But it wasn't fun. 😅 One should really take the time and go around the island instead of going through the canal.
Dude I needed that laugh 😆🤣😂😹. 🙏
looks like the best approach to this is to have minimum bumpers .
Man that is something!
My word, that looks even more hazardous than Haulover Inlet
Yes. I live on this island 😊😊 It gets even more worse but then no one passes 😊
A breakwater is needed to protect the channel.
Still no old car tyres on the sides...
No room for tyres🤣
No need for that because PORT AUTHORITY doesn't let bigger boats than this through the canal, it's a island so bigger boats or those who are unsure of passing this can just take longer route around the island. These people know what they're doing and have obviously passed this before. In all 35 years I've lived here no one ever crashed
Too narrow to add tires. Maybe bubble wrap would help.
Guess they cannot afford to widen it?
It's not about whether we can afford it or not, for that great idea of yours a new bridge has to be made and that'd mean cutting off entire island from the means to travel to the shore like ferry or state road. If you close this part to "widen it" for even a day, hell would break loose and knowing how our state takes their sweet time for even most urgent fixes, it'd mean cutting all transportation of people and food for at least six months.
Thank you, your comment was a brilliant idea.
P.S. If you're just an amateur skipper who wants to show off, don't try to pass here. No one has ever complained for having to pass this route in the last 100 years
Looks like Cr🌞atia....
Pink shorts at One Oclock.. ;)
Must admit they're a bit of a distraction
I'm surprised they don't have a sail up even just little, that really calms down a sailboat. I don't know what the draft is there and these boaters did look experienced to me. Just a thought.
Lol have the sail upWhile trying to go to the bridge yet maybe 10 foot 12 at the max stay on your couch you don’t know what you’re talking about
Look at their flags. They have the wind right on the stern.
A lot of thought put in by the guy that designed that channel !. ???
2nd sailboat captain was making far too dynamic turns. less is more
that channel could be a bit wider..
I would take that in my 12 foot Kool foam sailboat under sail.
The first two boats nailed ,,,not easy at all in a yacht which the 3rd boat demonstrated hitting the sides of the canal 2,or 3 times I’d hate that 2 be my ho:e port if that’s t(e damage you are likely to get just getting in out of the harbour
Bho manne vale la pena ?
haulover inlet is a cake walk when you compare it to this gauntlet
people is so mean that they expect the ships crash :- (
Need about 10 fenders on each side for this entrance!!!

Can't wait for slack tide, nooo.
What tide are you referring to? This is the Adriatic, no tidal difference of importance really.
@@jansenki4025 The current. Or is that a river?
@@jthepickle7 the surge through the narrow passage is probably caused by a passing low pressure area combined with gale force winds
Not exactly Haulover Inlet, but interesting.
Who designed this. Lmfao! Why? He must have a boat repair shop on the other side! 😹🤣😂
One toast for the engineers!
Tilt!!!
Locals should put fenders along sides
i'd like to see some doing that under full sail
A hydrofoil on plane could shoot straight through like an arrow but they'd be hauling ass lol
@@eastalawest1633 well aware what sail boats are capable of, 56 yrs old, live in an international sailing port destination my whole life and worked building multi-million $ sailing vessels for a few yrs...have watched world famous racing sail boat Captains sail,
