Schianto in porto per un traghetto a San Diego – Video

Un turista belga ha ripreso l‘entrata in porto di un traghetto che porta i turisti in un tour di avvistamento di balene al largo di San Diego, e probabilmente non si aspettava di riprendere una scena di questo tipo. Il traghetto si è letteralmente schiantato sul molo a causa, dicono i membri dell’equipaggio, di un malfunzionamento meccanico che ha impedito l’arresto – probabilmente il mancato funzionamento dell’invertitore che ha impedito di mettere i motori in retromarcia.

A bordo 144 passeggeri, di cui sette hanno riportato ferite lievi, e come si vede dal video moltissime persone anche sul molo, fortunatamente tutte riuscite ad allontanarsi in tempo e illese. La nave ne è uscita invece un po’ malconcia: i danni sono piuttosto gravi. Dal video pare che il comandante abbia fermato i motori, forse una volta resosi conto del problema, e abbia suonato il corno per avvertire i passanti sul molo.

Il nome del traghetto “Hornblower”, suonatore di corno, appunto, a noi però fa venire in mente un’altra storia. Quella di Horatio Hornblower, il personaggio dei romanzi di Cecil Scott Forester che, come il più noto Jack Aubrey di Patrick O’Brian, è ispirato all’ammiraglio britannico realmente vissuto Thomas Cochrane, e interpretato nientemeno che da Gregory Peck nell’omonimo film. Qualcosa di glorioso almeno, c’è.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! Tuttobarche.it is in fact the largest online portal on recreational boating and in this section you will be able to write your ad for free if you want to sell your boat. Adding a new sales message is very simple and intuitive as is finding a boat you are interested in buying, but to make your listing even more appealing, we want to give you some general but important pointers that you can follow if you wish.

First of all, try to personalize your ad, describing the history of the boat and perhaps the reason why you are selling it, this way you will gain more trust from the reader.

You can call it “half-new” if it is almost new, or “used” by specifying whether or not it is in good condition. It indicates the condition of the engines, the year of registration, how many owners it has had-most importantly, it indicates whether the boat has been owned by a single owner: it increases interest to those reading the ad.

The goodness of your craft must shine through in your message, because before you can convince someone, you yourself must be convinced that the product is good.

It is important that no spelling errors are made in the advertisement, so reread the message well before putting it online. The language then must be clear and simple, understandable to all.

It serves to attract interest and induce the reader to continue reading; it is the most important part and should summarize in one line the whole message we want to give. Unfortunately, you don’t have much chance to stand out much except with something really original to attract attention. So focus on truly original details of the boat, its real qualities: in the Tuttobarche.it portal this brief summary will appear by hovering over the picture of the boat with the mouse.

It is important to clearly include the general record of the vessel. Always enter: shipyard, model, length, width, draft, engines, number of cabins, year of construction, price.

In the boat sheet accurately enter all boat details, standard and extra equipment. It is useful to communicate many details and details for those who are really interested and will continue reading beyond the first few lines.

Suggest to the reader who wants to buy the best features of your craft, and do not indicate-unless it is necessary to inform the buyer in advance-information that might negatively influence the reader.

Always indicate the price. Unless you absolutely do not want to deal, we recommend adding the words “price negotiable” which gives an incentive for the buyer to contact you.
