The crew of a 1989 CT56 anchors in La Parguera, Puerto Rico, using a 100-foot chain scope and a snubber to manage load on the windlass.1:21 They demonstrate a standard anchoring procedure: turning the vessel into the wind, dropping the anchor, and backing down to ensure the gear is set.2:12 The anchorage is protected by a reef, which, combined with offshore evening breezes, creates calm conditions.5:52 For shore access in La Parguera, the crew utilizes a private dock at Marina Pescadaria for a five-dollar daily fee, as no public dinghy dock exists.7:41 The crew also explores a local sandbar, a popular weekend destination for boaters.3:28 Additionally, the owner plans to install a top-down furling spinnaker, which requires modifying the bowsprit and pulpit to accommodate a new turning block and furler setup.11:34 Proper use of a snubber prevents the windlass clutch from bearing the full load of the vessel while at anchor.1:41
