What this video covers

The owners of a Warren 42 catamaran upgrade their ground tackle system to improve chain flow and reduce deck vibration.2:32 They install a custom-welded stainless steel roller assembly on the second beam to replace a flat metal plate that previously caused the anchor chain to snag and vibrate during retrieval.2:49 The crew replaces their old chain with 100 meters of 8mm Chromox Super Duplex chain, marking it every 5 meters for depth reference.5:14 By reconfiguring the chain locker and installing the new roller, the operator can now retrieve the anchor single-handedly from the cockpit without the chain stacking and blocking the windlass.7:11 Additionally, the crew explores an abandoned industrial mining and stone processing site near Ermioni, Greece.10:55 The facility, which operated from the early 20th century until its final closure in 1995, features derelict administrative buildings, machinery, and a loading ramp.14:50 The site remains accessible to visitors, though the structures show significant decay.15:29
