Yes, a 60kt gust is commonplace. Either the mooring lines were inadequate, or they failed. The 'windage' - side-pressure - on these floating offive blocks is huge, and the QMII is not that big; those Costa vessels - there's one on the video - are bigger. If it drifted down on a small yacht it could crush it. |
