What this video covers
The crew of the monohull Jibsea navigates the Grenadines, attempting to anchor off the small island of Mopion. After dropping the anchor in 20 feet of water over a bottom of dead coral and rock, the crew determines the anchor is not securely set and risks dragging.4:23 They decide to relocate to the nearby anchorage at Petite Saint Vincent to ensure the vessel's safety before exploring the area by dinghy.5:39 The crew notes that the Grenadines allow for short, flexible passages between islands, contrasting remote, quiet spots like Mopion with busier, charter-focused locations such as Salt Whistle Bay.12:06 While at Salt Whistle Bay, they attempt a hike to a hilltop viewpoint but find the trail overgrown and impassable.14:03 The crew concludes that prioritizing secure anchoring over convenience allows for more relaxed exploration of the surrounding reefs and islands.11:28
