Great video as always - love the clear and calm instructions. Please can you do one on anchoring, specifically anchoring in crowded anchorages. - Where to position yourself relatove to other boats. - How close it too close. - When do you cut your losses and move to another bay I heard dropping the hook a boat length off either of their quarter's when in the middle of their swing is polite and safe (a similarboat to yours). Is that correct? I am thinking for height if summer when every bay is busy and yiu cannot just move to a less crowded anchorage. Thank you in advance

This is incredibly helpful. In the list of most useful sailing tips on YT if you ask me. The "I have a 10m anchor chain and it's 9m deep" - part is very good. It is something a lot of people forget! I think that most people keep on hoisting even with the anchor off the sea floor. I know from experience that one gets very occupied when doing this, looking down, and listening. It's very easy to forget to look up and look around from time to time. Especially when other boats are nearby. It also helps to check Navionics before you start: the depths around you. In case the boat drifts to a shallower spot with the anchor still in the water. (I hope you don't mind my comments)
