Monsterwellen

Zitat von KlausB

Hallo,



also wenn ich bedenke, dass diese Wellen fast zehnmal so hoch sind wie mein Schlauchi lang, dann werde ich das Seegebiet 250 Meilen westlich von Schottland dauerhaft aus meinen Urlaubsplänen streichen...

Hier mal die aktuelle Wettervorhersage :
ROCKALL NORTH 4 OR 5 BECOMING CYCLONIC 5 TO 7. RAIN OR SHOWERS. MODERATE OR GOOD (= Visibility)

und ich glaube auch nicht, dass Du mit dem Schlauchi dahinkommst :

Rockall is an isolated, uninhabited, pudding shaped sea-rock situated in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean. It is tiny: only 19m high, 25m across and 30m wide. Rockall is located 57° N, 13° W, which puts it about 300 miles from the coasts of Scotland, Ireland, and Iceland. The sea area around it, also known as Rockall, is well known to ardent listeners of the North Atlantic Shipping Forecasts.

A bare granite quartz rock, formed by volcanic upheavals around 50 million years ago, Rockall's chemical composition identifies it as part of the North American continental plate. Nothing much lives there apart from colonies of gannets, seagulls and periwinkles1. Although it is the only piece of land in hundreds of square miles of open sea, it has been responsible for at least two major shipwrecks - the Helen of Dundee in 1824, and the Norge in 1904 when over 600 people were killed.
