Best you sort this out ASAP! That is a hazard for all boats moored in Scoots and Jamison's. You can't just anchor it and leave it like you have done, especially in the weather we have had. We had 40knots blowing through here Thursday and Friday, 35knts on Saturday, that looks like a lot of warp and minimal chain to your anchor. I'm local and concerned for our boat and others which luckily haven't been hit and damaged by your unattended anchor vessel during foul weather. If you need any help, let me know. I can see if I can help in any way. Sorry you've found your boat like that, but ending up on the mud without causing damage to other vessels is the best place to end up. Lets get it on a mooring!!
Totally agree, people who do things like this are making floating mines for the rest of us. The anchor is likely well undersized and im picking no anchor light too. Jason should know better so lets hope he tells himself that in the future too
@@Michael-by4jw Hey actually I got it out of there on the next tide and it turns out that it didn't drag anchor at all, but that someone had actually moved it to that position (They meant well be doing so but just made a mistake) It did seem curious as its mud holding there and the anchor was buried well in it. But anyway..... the boat belongs to someone else now.
@mycrazyboatlife gesus he sounds as bad as Christians. Theres a Townson going cheap on trademe. Buy that and you'll never have to spend so much on Trademe fees ever again
What a bummer! Did you get it afloat again?
on the next tide. Turns out someone had moved it to there. Funny old world.....nevemind. They meant well I guess. I have moved the boat on now......
I can help anytime
