During the approach of Tropical Storm Isaias in Salinas, Puerto Rico, the crew of the sailboat Good, Bad, and Ugly intervenes when a neighboring vessel begins dragging anchor toward a shoal.0:10 The owner of the dragging boat is absent, so the crew contacts him by phone after locating his dinghy at a local marina.7:57 Upon receiving permission to assist, the crew uses their own dinghy to reset the dragging vessel's anchors and pull it off the shoal.9:09 The vessel’s failure to hold is attributed to an all-rope rode lacking chain, which prevents the anchor from setting properly in the shifting winds.14:08 The crew manages to secure the boat until the owner returns to move it to a mooring.16:04 During the subsequent night, the storm brings 50-knot winds, causing several other boats in the area to break loose and drift into mangroves.18:15 The experience highlights the necessity of using chain in anchor rodes for storm conditions and the importance of assisting fellow cruisers during weather events.
