To prepare for Hurricane Elsa, the crew of the sailboat Good, Bad, and Ugly anchored in a protected harbor in Culebra, Puerto Rico.1:19 To prevent dragging in high winds, the owner deployed a secondary Fortress anchor using a "Y" mooring system, which connects a 15-foot length of chain to the primary anchor rode approximately 20 feet below the surface.2:59 This configuration provides 360-degree protection and allows for a quick emergency release by dropping a single line.3:10 The crew also secured sails with safety lines, removed the dodger, and prepared USB-rechargeable lighting for night watches.8:20 Although the storm was upgraded to a hurricane while passing 60 to 80 miles south, the anchorage remained calm.10:36 The crew emphasizes that cruisers should maintain rigorous storm preparation protocols even when a system appears likely to miss, as rapid track changes can lead to unexpected high-wind events.10:52 Following the storm, the crew explored Culebra by dinghy, accessing local docks, markets, and the Hector the Protector sculpture.11:50
