Anchored at Cape Verde in 30–35-knot winds with gusts to 35, the skipper of Odin reports his FOB HP anchor (32 kg) on 50 meters of 12mm chain held without dragging a centimeter in soft sand — despite earlier warnings from other sailors that the FOB was a poor secondary anchor.4:42 Wind instruments confirmed 35-knot gusts; Windy showed the blow continuing through Saturday, four days out.6:33 The anchorage sits behind a breakwater that blocks waves but funnels swell, sending 2-meter sets through the gap.0:45 Red Saharan dust coated the entire boat — sails, shrouds, portlights — requiring a seawater rinse before a freshwater wash.3:05 A loose battery cable connection had cut charging output from 750W to roughly 300W; cleaning the contacts and retightening the terminal restored full output from the Beta engine's 70-amp alternator.7:55 Customs clearance at the police station took 10 minutes, required boat papers, insurance, and a passport photocopy, and a French-speaking officer confirmed a visa extension was available on request.2:19 A beach walk revealed five shark species listed on a local sign, including hammerheads, plus bars and restaurants closed off-season.18:13 Dinghy security is low-risk; a 2.3 hp Honda outboard draws no theft interest.0:06
