Ce que couvre cette vidéo
To prepare for a gale at anchor, a skipper must secure all deck gear and maximize ground tackle holding power. When expecting 40-to-45-knot gusts, choose a deep anchorage with a compact sand or mud bottom and avoid sheer cliffs that generate dangerous fall winds.2:35 Deploy at least 9 times the water depth in chain, and attach a snubber line using a rolling hitch to the chain to relieve tension on the windlass.4:49 Secure the furled jib with a dedicated line to prevent it from unfurling and tearing in high winds.7:34 Remove or tightly lash down cockpit awnings and secure the mainsail inside the lazy bag with additional lines wrapped around the boom.9:59 Store the tender on deck, secured with a hoist system to prevent movement.8:14 In the event of an emergency, ensure the chain is attached to the boat with a rope that can be cut quickly.5:40 Keep the crew informed and assign roles for monitoring drag, while prioritizing safety during thunderstorms by avoiding metal surfaces and wearing shoes.12:58
