Ce que couvre cette vidéo
James, sailing solo aboard Triteia, anchored at Parsons Landing on Catalina Island on July 12, 2021, after a 9-hour motor sail from Burton Chase Park in Marina Del Rey.1:22 Parsons Landing is among the most exposed anchorages on Catalina and requires near-calm conditions; James waited for a two-day weather window before attempting it.1:09 Dense kelp beds forced careful navigation to find 20 feet of water, and a large rock to leeward shaped his anchoring position.1:45 He dropped a bow anchor at 5:1 scope for a single night, noting he would have added a stern anchor for a longer stay to hold the bow into the open-ocean swells.2:13 At 3:30 AM a large swell rolled the boat beam-to-beam; he deployed a rocker stopper on a spinnaker pole, which restored comfortable motion immediately.4:05 Ashore, the Trans-Catalina Trail terminates at the campsite, toilets and trash cans were present in 2021, and the kelp bed sheltered the dinghy landing from surf.2:36 The passage is an video from James's Channel Islands of California cruising guide, which covers 27 anchorages with firsthand logs alongside standard reference data.Watch
