The owner of a Catalina 30, Solé, attempts to use a newly installed manual windlass to retrieve a 45-pound anchor at Cat Harbor, Santa Catalina Island.5:33 After finding the windlass operation too slow for an emergency situation and noting that the chain does not feed properly into the anchor locker, the owner reverts to manual retrieval.6:44 During an overnight stay in 20-knot winds, the owner increases anchor scope to five-to-one to improve holding.8:38 Following the departure from Cat Harbor, the vessel motors toward Long Beach, California, while navigating lumpy seas and light winds.15:01 The owner uses PredictWind to monitor weather models but alters the planned route to avoid uncomfortable sea states.15:20 During the transit, the owner misjudges the speed of a nearby vessel and performs a close-quarters crossing of its bow.19:55 The trip concludes with a brief period of sailing under a full main before returning to port.21:01
