Transatlantic on a Gunboat 68 | Part 2

The North Atlantic delivers a brutal test in this second episode of our Gunboat 68 transatlantic series. The passage transforms from a comfortable downwind sleigh ride into a full-blown ocean emergency when we hit an unknown object at 12 knots, completely destroying the starboard rudder and rudder box.
