Qué cubre este vídeo
Cozzy and Mitcho cruise south along the west coast of Martinique on their Leopard 40, stopping first at Anse Noire — a cove the cruising guide limits to three yachts but which fills with roughly 15 to 20 boats, charter catamarans carrying 30 passengers, jet skis, and a beach raft-up party.3:26 The overcrowding creates tight swinging room; they let out extra chain after arriving too close to neighboring boats.5:18 Mitcho's anchoring routine covers two priorities: swing radius relative to rocks and other vessels, and anchor placement on sand rather than reef.5:38 Snorkeling at Anse Noire disappoints despite its reputation — they call it one of the deadest spots they've seen, though a turtle feeding on seagrass close to the boat is a highlight.3:50 A brief hard Caribbean rain passes quickly.6:23 The next morning they motor 3 nautical miles to Grande Anse, a larger anchorage still early and uncrowded at arrival.12:09 Cozzy reflects on selling their home and sailing from Australia to the Caribbean as the biggest decision they've made, framing it as deliberate discomfort.14:35 Swing radius assessment and anchor placement on sand patches are the practical anchoring lessons carried through both stops.
