Great content as always. I'd love a video on how to moor a small recreational vessel near a beach. Consider how to find suitable area, disembarking onto beach, ensuring vessel is secure overnight, what weather or coastal conditions to check for, etc

Great video. Thanks

I understand, but if there is no engine power. would there not be a problem with the beam wind in this situation? Won't the vessel be blown sideways as the cable is paid out o the leeward anchor? I guess plenty of space must be allowed for in this situation? I'm not a professional seafarer, so please excuse my ignorance. Love he series by the way. :-)

Easier said than done. I have done this only on small boats.It works pretty nice when you anchor in an area where the tides change direction but if you sit there fore a few days your anchor chains will most likely start twisting around and I have no clue how you would untwist chaines on a large ship or large boat.And then you'll have to watch out for what the wind is doing. I had boats where the boat went with the wind direction and not with the current. All in all I guess it's the only solution but not a great one at least not one to get a good night sleep.

How about watching that your prop doesn't tangle/cut your anchor line.
