@Tjokkaflens Well her classic wooden double-ender hull was handling the waves much better than her more modern counterparts.

"the OLD guy" probably has spent more time on the water in a month then you in a year.

Anonymous Brave ..or foolish?

@@timbiddiscombe5551 These guys are from Finnmark, the far north of Norway. They would be doing this in the dark of night if it was so... goo.gl/maps/hjbCixPN3HD24hcQ9 ;-)

Yup.....they are suited up for death!!

Your right J S !

Amateurs,! These two guys are trying save the smallest boat on the dock, and putting there lives at risk and the lives of the people that come to save them

Not really. Lack of propulsion/steerage with wind/current driving the vessel on to rocks would be worse.

@@jbuckley2546 notice the little yellow boat thats tied to a float and turns its bow against the wind-waves it have almost no problem

Helllll Yessss!!

BT,DT!

@@NoName-zn1sb right on

Navy must have changed, once you made Second Class you were immune from make work. Unless you were a Bosun. Then E-5s were god. E-6 and above, God's advisors. 😁😁😁

Epsensieg 18. Common sense really

@@gaycha6589 Sadly, common sense is something endangered today. We rescue boats almost every summer - boats that often get in trouble because of neglect, bad mooring and just plain idiotic stupidity (like having the stern facing out against the waves and when the first windy day appears during the summer, the boat fills and goes down in a matter of hour at max (happened last year)). Some boats we have rescued several times during the years.....

Xanthopteryx... the weather forcast cant always predict tornados... there arent real big tornados in northern norway but there are somtimes weather patterns the meterologists cant predict in troms where im from in northern norway ,,, we cald it FALL WIND ore FLOING.. it can say be sunny and calm and suddenly you hear and see a storm coming spesially if your out on open sea, and see the ocean turning GREY,, and it blows like crazy 5-15 minuts,,, and then it most times rain a while,, and 5 minuts after the rain stops its calm and sunny again.

@@samkom33 I know how it works - i work with weather forecasting. And remember what i said - ALWAYS anticipate storm and tie the boats according to that. We have had 20 m/s straight in and NEVER had any problem with our boat, since i ALWAYS anticipate stormy weather, even in the middle of summer.

@@Xanthopteryx hehe yes if you dont always plan for wourst case, you better have a good insurance. but 20 m/s wind isnt even storm? as a fisherman outside finnmark on a 78 feet boat, we once got cought in a big storm 64 m/s and had to seek shelter behind BEAR ISLAND.. THE boat handled the vawes well but even at full speed on the enging we wasnt able to sail against the wind-vawes so we could get to our fishing gear. hehe. But the strongest wind i have experienced was i think in 1995 i was on a cruise from Kristiansand norway to Hirtshals and the cruiseship couldnt get out of the dock even with the side trusters.. it was BLOWING 84 m/s dang! While we waited for the weather to calm down, the captain annonced that THE SHIP ESTONIA WENT DOWN NEARBY where we had been a few hours before.

Boats on a swinging mooring naturally point to the wind and so, into the oncoming waves.

A lot of the commenters were thinking they were martians!

No one on that dock has a survival suit on. Just foul weather gear and they don't have any business on that dock.

The guys in red and blue had diving weights in their suits!!

Your so called god gave you freedom of choice, and if you're dues are paid up you should be able to call on it at anytime and it will pull your bacon from the fire. Right?

o s

... pWtae rv

Awesome man!!

yes i usually use 4 thick springlines and 2 thinner lines with rubber extensions on, directly from the bow and stern to the dock if i want my 35 feet 18 ton boat to stay glued to the dock say when im offloading fish ore taking ice onboard.. but if i suaspect wind, ore i leave my boat for days,,, i use only spring lines, and drop a few ankers a bit on the outside holding the boat away from the dock.

that is only a boat. Don't kill yourself to save stuff.

O.... look the small boat 2 owner came with great concern to save it.

which way is forward when the storm can come from 360° and you left your boat teathered up by the ... stern ?

@@team3383 it doesn't matter which way the storm comes at the boat....tethering the stern forward keeps bow off the dock...some people call it a " spring line "...

@@JD-qv2dq I gather you are talking about forward with regards to the jetty then. Still doesn't define where the storm, wind and waves will be coming from ...

@halmc Come on over. My dog is in an urn on the fireplace mantel.

nemo227 a bit difficult to make a good living with a trailerable boat

@@jrjohnryanjr Correct. And the caption said, "The storm came unannounced". I didn't see any boat hoist in the video, either. Fishing for a living can be pretty hard.

I was thinking the same thing, in a situation like this you just sit back and watch, unless you have a deathwish.

me tew!!

Scandinavian Folk Boat

Nearest pub the best.

North Norway, see reg.nr on boat.

@@arvebrekke8006 Yeah understood it was Norway:) But I meant what harbor, seem weird with such a unprotected harbour

@Ryan James Ships In Storms Video Compilation [REAL FOOTAGE - HD] (3:18) 55 miles south west of Tasman Island

Honningsvåg, Norway. After the registration numbers on the fishing vessels.

idiota

That would be more of an idea if someone heard one announce its arrival.

Erm.... yes but mine is a swinging mooring on a tidal river.

@Mike Lyons Well I comb whats left of my hair now and again and polish my shoes now and again but thats about it!.

those looked like survival suits aka pfds. 300lb of flotation in those.

Norway

Storms don't , but weather forecast do .

Nope, Northern Norway, probably somewhere in Nordkapp municipality from the reg. numbers on all the fishing boats (NK)

Only when they have rounded bilges. The shape causes the instability, not the material it's made of.
