The Nautilus broke free from Mooring multiple times.

During Hurricane Katrina it broke free and we had to send an air plane out looking for the rig. While the mooring winches were being repaired it was under tow and Hurricane Rita broke it free from the tow bridle. There were 20 something people on board the rig, the hurricane was pushing them towards land and they had two thrusters that could just barely steer it enough to dodge platforms. Once the rig was in shallow enough water they ballasted it down and sat it on bottom, ruined the thrusters.
Wow. Certainly didn't know all those details.
