To prepare for a Mediterranean hurricane with forecast winds of 25 to 40 knots, the crew of Zephyr relocated to Las Salinas in the southeast of Ibiza.2:10 They anchored in 20 feet of water, deploying 150 feet of chain plus a 20-to-25-foot snubber to ensure adequate scope.5:21 To mitigate risks during the storm, the crew secured all loose deck gear, tightened halyards, and kept the dinghy in the water to facilitate emergency assistance for nearby vessels.5:54 They also left the engine ignition keys in place and the starter battery switch engaged for immediate maneuverability.6:22 The crew prioritized finding a sandy patch to avoid damaging protected Posidonia eelweed, a common hazard in the region that frequently causes anchors to foul.1:42 After observing multiple vessels wash up on rocks due to poor anchoring technique and insufficient scope, the crew maintained a constant watch on neighboring boats.7:18 Proper scope, diligent anchor placement, and maintaining a high state of readiness for the engine and tender are essential for surviving severe weather at anchor.
