Disaster with Hurricane Nora onboard a Neel 51

Our footage onboard " Carry on," during Hurricane Nora in the Pacific 2021. We advise of some some basic hints and tips on how to survive and hopefully escape unharmed.

Please remember; ask around for local knowledge including wind patterns, timings and shelter.
For Mexico this book is excellent: https://www.amazon.com/MexWX-Weather-Boaters-John-Rains/dp/0963847015

In an ideal world I would have all sails packed away and removed from furlers and forestays, (we didn't have time).

Kind regards
Evangelina, James and "The fur-ball" (Elbe).
