Great to see you back have been following you since the beginning wondering if you finished the barge
@johnandrews1954Ай бұрын
I was really worried where you were. I knew the barge was not for you although you made a beautiful job of her, Did you manage to sell her okay?. When you were sailing again you were alive again. Please keep us up to date

I have an anchor looking a lot like a Delta. My point is that the size of an anchor is a big point in how well it is holding. My anchor is perhaps not the most modern, but it is 32 kg for my 42 feet, 11 t boat. I have not been in any difficulties even in wind reaching 25 m/s with the anchor dragging after it had been properly set. In high winds I like to put out more chain than the recommended 5 times the depth, going rather for 7 or 8 times, I have over 80 m of 10 mm chain. I still have to experience a significant direction change in high winds while anchoring. I use a rope wound around a rubber damper between chain and boat to take shocks. I use the anchor watch program on my plotter, with an alarm if the anchor should start dragging.

There is one thing missing in his story and that is the importance of knowing how to anchor. Sounds to me that Ultra made it easier for people to anchor when they don't know how to anchor. That means they will still make the same mistakes, but they are less likely to find out. It should be good if sailing instructors spend more time teaching students how to anchor properly. Too often I see boats coming into an anchorage, they drop the anchor, throw out the minimum of chain and that is it. In good weather that may be enough, but as soon as the wind picks up they start dragging and the first thing everybody does is ? Blame the anchor. That needs to change.

My two Bob - the defenders in this instance did what worked for them, and have reviewed/amended their defensive measures, and should be commended. I have my thoughts on security measures of various levels, based on situation awareness, monitoring, avoidance, early detection, maintaining distance, layers of security/defence. Bottom line - sailors need a practiced plan based on the time/place/context.

Testing anchors in sand and mud for their holding power is useless. They all work in ideal conditions. What one really wants to know is which anchor will set and hold in grass or hard sand or rock. This Ultra saleman talks about anchors "landing upside down" which is ridiculous. A Delta cannot maintain an upside down position. It immediately rolls to one side or the other and then begins to set. I do not think that our salesboy has any experience using the Delta, and I think that he has a commercial interest in trying to discredit it. IMO, the Delta is the most cost-effective, and I do have experience in using one. I have found the 22 lb. Delta to be superior to the 35 lb. CQR. I always used a minimum of 50 ft. of chain. SS Ultra? Say goodbye to $$$$ when it fouls in 50 ft. of water. $4,000.00? YIKES!

Having watched these vidios i would suggest these folk stay in safe waters, they are are not up to to what an angry ocean can give. But best luck anyway, maybe luck will provail, but pleae remember its not sunglasses and glamour, sailing comes with risk.

Just seen the retired folk atempting this, with calm winds this could work, but given a trs, the arc will have the worst outcome. Suggestion, make kipper underr 40 and experienced in ocean without electronics. Regrads skipper john Lass pàlmàs fix it for boats engineer.

Best ever advice for you old boys, dont depend on your crew, are you up to it single handed, prepare for that as shit may happen and your crew/passengers are entirely your rsponsabiltg if lost you face procesussion. Sail single handed for at least 5 years 5,000 miles without electronics then your ready. Regrads skipper john

Nice words good talk, but having done it expect the unexpected, take bottled water, tinned food and a sowing kit for blown out sails, and navigate old school, because when your allfancy goes wrong u better well should know how to do without power, as an exercise try sailing without power to the island of Madera and back as a try, as I learned be a hardened sailer thats been in storms previous. Your crew crew is your responsibility to deliver home safe and sound, the atlantic is no playground. Good luck, but remeber their lies are in your hands and entirely your responsabilty, regards skipper john.

Great video. We are in Salvador, Brazil, sailed from Mindelo, Cape Verde, being a good stop. You are going to regret not crossing the equator, respectfully suggesting an early January departure from Mindelo, making it to Salvador in time for Carnival in February, perhaps founding an event called: ARC+Brazil.
