Cosa tratta questo video
A solo sailor aboard a Catalina 30 performs a bow-and-stern anchoring maneuver at Little Fisherman’s Cove on Santa Catalina Island.13:46 The transit from Long Beach involves motor-sailing at 2,800 RPM to maintain speeds near 6 knots in light wind.7:28 During the passage, the captain identifies a heading discrepancy on the chart plotter, attributing the misalignment to potential magnetic interference affecting the autopilot’s gyro sensor.2:29 Upon reaching the cove, the sailor deploys a 45-lb Mantus anchor from the bow and a secondary stern anchor in 25 to 30 feet of water to minimize swinging in the swell.13:49 The setup uses a Mantus swivel and anchor stop, with the captain manually adjusting the stern line via dinghy to secure the vessel’s position.8:35 The procedure concludes with the sailor maintaining an anchor watch to verify the holding of both anchors.13:17
