Blizzard Hove to in the Southern Ocean

Running under bare poles, then setting the storm jib and heaving to in a slightly unconventional way, with just a backed storm Jib. Wind about 40 knots seas about 3-4 meters or so on average. The wind picked up for a while when we where hove to maybe to nearer 50 for an hour or so. One bigger wave caught us badly as shown near the end of the video. But overall pretty mild conditions and a good practise session, and playing chess under the dodger beat having to hand steer out in the open. Note some slightly weird distortions caused by the youtube anti camera shake filter making the bow seem to flex (which it wasn't, she is a very strong boat). Blizzard is a very strong 64 foot aluminium expedition schooner designed by Graham Radford, I was crew for this trip from Hobart to Puerto Montt in Chile.    • Blizzard Expeditions - Southern Ocean Trav...   this is a short, unfortunately poor resolution video of the whole trip.
