O que este vídeo aborda

Pablo Berrus adds 50 meters of anchor chain to his boat in preparation for a solo circumnavigation, bringing total chain length from 30 meters to 80 meters, supplemented by roughly 30–35 meters of rope rode.0:02 The existing 30-meter chain was judged too short for safe anchoring.0:02 Before buying, he visits the boat to collect a chain sample, because two different link types exist for the same diameter and he needs to match the existing chain.0:08 At the chandlery he buys the 50-meter length, then returns to the boat to install it.0:14 He also paints the chain at 5- and 10-meter intervals so he can read out scope while anchoring without counting shackles.0:17 He notes he still needs to buy two additional anchors as spares.0:56 The full ground-tackle setup will be: two anchors, 80 meters of chain, and 30–35 meters of rope.1:04 Marking chain at regular intervals is a practical fix for monitoring scope when anchoring solo.
