Hva denne videoen dekker
Jibsea anchors in a Corsican bay to shelter from a forecasted Mistral, a northwest wind expected to reach 30 knots.2:31 To mitigate the risk of anchor failure, the crew removes 100 feet of rusted chain from their rode and installs a new link.4:49 They choose an anchorage with a long, open shoreline to minimize the risk of colliding with other vessels if dragging occurs.2:44 They deploy an anchor ball to signal their position and swing radius to arriving boats.6:08 During the 30-knot gusts, a neighboring catamaran drags its anchor, forcing the captain to re-anchor.7:20 After four days, the crew departs for a 240-nautical-mile passage to Menorca, Spain.14:40 They maintain a wing-on-wing sail configuration for 42 hours in 12- to 20-knot winds, managing a two-to-three-foot sea state and a beam swell.8:43 Proper anchor placement and monitoring neighboring vessels are essential for safety when sheltering in crowded anchorages during high-wind events.
