Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Cruising the waters around Malta, a sailboat crew navigates between Comino Island and Gozo Island while managing summer swell and crowded anchorages. To mitigate rolling in calm, shallow bays, the crew deploys a stern anchor to keep the bow oriented into the swell.14:01 They emphasize using sufficient line to ensure the anchor digs into the sandy bottom, noting that shallow water improves the effectiveness of this technique compared to deep-water attempts.14:23 When maneuvering in peak season, the crew experiences high traffic from day-charter vessels, leading them to anchor further out and relocate once space opens.5:14 The crew also highlights the local reliance on reverse osmosis for water supply, as the islands lack natural reservoirs.2:21 During a hike to a coastal lookout, they note that while the path is steep, it remains accessible to those arriving by rental car.22:45 The crew reports that stern anchoring remains a challenge but improves with practice and proper tensioning.16:44
