At Perdika Marina on the island of Aegina, Alexandros Retsinas found his anchor pinned under two chains from a neighboring vessel after laying out roughly 60 meters of chain.0:49 The neighboring boat's two shackles had fallen across his chain, locking it to the seabed and making retrieval impossible by windlass alone.0:58 Retsinas coordinated with the other skipper, Captain Tasos, directing him to slack both chains while the crew used a bridle rigged in the opposite direction of the shackle connection to work the fouled link free.5:47 The windlass was run in short bursts to let the batteries recharge between pulls, avoiding electrical overload.8:17 Once the anchor rose high enough, all three crew members combined windlass power and manual hauling to hold it in position while the shackle was cleared.10:08 The anchor — described as weighing around 400 kilograms with chain — was then dropped quickly to prevent it re-tangling between the shackles.11:57 Retsinas's key lesson: the skipper who knows his own ground tackle and has a clear visual picture of the underwater situation should direct the recovery, not defer to the other captain, however experienced.13:09
