Dimitri DhuyvetterAnother thing checked off our list: we dragged anchor. Wind gusting to 30 knots and more and high tide in a quite shallow anchorage which meant not enough chain out for the wind strength. Lessons learned and another claim for our insurance. We hit the cat behind us, not too badly but still. #cruisingLife #WalvisBay
Blog post I wrote about the anchor dragging incident: http://svtropicaldawn.blog/2023/03/05/we-dragged-anchor/ #cruisingLife #anchoring #draggingAnchor
And Kay also wrote about the “communication breakdown” that accompanied us responding to dragging anchor: http://svtropicaldawn.blog/2023/03/05/dragging-anchor-kays-version/ Although we both seem to remember different things we were shouting to eachother about. 😂
