Can Engineers Transport 20 Yachts Across The Atlantic On A Custom-Built Sumbersible? | Huge Moves

This week on Huge Moves S4 - A team race against time and tide to transport a fleet of mega-yachts worth over $160million from Genoa, Italy to Fort Lauderdale in Florida. The 20 bespoke yachts are too precious to sail across the Atlantic. So a Dutch team create a customized 'submersible' yacht transporter-ship to ferry the luxurious pleasure boats around the world.

The mission's success lies in the hands of loading master Tieke Springer. She must load, balance and secure the yachts on the transporter ships flat deck precisely so they can survive the rough sea crossing. Halfway through the 8,000km voyage, the ship runs into a hurricane. Will the precious cargo survive this deadly encounter?
