What this video covers

The crew of the 33-kilo Rocna-equipped *Nandji - Frothlyfe* seeks shelter in the lagoon at Linga Linga, Mozambique, to avoid a severe southerly weather system moving through the Mozambique Channel.0:30 After crossing from Madagascar, the crew monitors a forecast of 40-knot winds and strong currents, opting to anchor in the protected sandbanks of Inhambane rather than risk a passage to Richards Bay.0:25 During the 35-to-40-knot blow, the crew deploys 90 meters of chain to maintain position against wind-against-tide conditions that cause the vessel to heel 15 degrees at anchor.16:33 A nearby delivery boat with insufficient ground tackle drags toward a shipwreck and requires assistance from the *Nandji - Frothlyfe* crew and other yachts to avoid grounding.14:23 The crew uses PredictWind to track the front and waits for the wind to shift before continuing their journey toward South Africa.10:52 Proper scope and heavy ground tackle are essential for maintaining position in current-dominated anchorages during high-wind events.
