A 28.5-nautical-mile passage through the Marlborough Sounds on the South Island of New Zealand leads to an anchorage in Waterfall Bay, Port Liger.2:06 The crew navigates the route with favorable tidal currents through Cook Strait and light winds, eventually reaching the bay to prepare for an incoming gale.2:58 Anticipating a 60-knot weather system, they select an anchorage sheltered by trees and terrain to dampen wind exposure.18:16 They anchor in 15 meters of water over a clay bottom, deploying 40 meters of chain.19:15 When the storm arrives, gusts reach 38 knots, but the anchor holds position without dragging.20:57 During the transit, the crew catches a fish near a salmon farm and discusses the use of UV-protective lip balm to prevent sun damage.15:23 They decline a local resident's offer of a mooring, citing its proximity to rocks, and choose to rely on their own ground tackle in the center of the bay.19:09 Proper anchor placement and choosing a location with natural wind protection are effective strategies for riding out high-wind events.
