A solo sailor aboard the sailboat *Corail* explores the anchorages of Les Anses-d'Arlet in Martinique, navigating between Anse Noire, Anse du Four, and Grande Anse.8:00 The sailor highlights the difficulty of anchoring in these areas, noting that Grande Anse and Anse d'Arlet are restricted to mooring buoys, with authorities frequently requiring vessels to vacate by morning.8:53 During a solo maneuver in 18 knots of wind, the sailor identifies significant rust damage on the first 20 meters of the anchor chain, which prevents it from seating properly in the windlass gypsy.8:30 The vessel experiences heavy rolling at anchor, causing internal rigging to slap against the mast, a recurring noise issue the sailor attributes to poor design in modern mast construction.29:18 Additional maintenance tasks include replacing a corroded electrical switch with a standard household unit and planning for future LED lighting installations.13:10 The sailor emphasizes the necessity of using a dive flag or signal buoy when swimming near anchorages to avoid collisions with boat traffic.26:01
