Episode 268 | Testing & upgrading our anchors *Get the coolest UV shirt yet* ? https://shopsailingyaba.com/products/super-cool-uv-top We spent four years rebuilding Yabá to sail the world, but before heading up the coast, it?s time to talk about something less glamorous (but absolutely crucial): anchoring. In this episode, we dive (literally) into how we anchor this 80+foot wooden boat. From our 50 meters of chain, to 200 meters of rope, to our three VERY different anchors (including two old-school designs you don?t see every day), we put our setup to the test. Spoiler alert: a lot didn?t go as planned. ? We also upgrade our system with a Mantus anchor swivel: https://www.mantusmarine.com/?affiliates=179 Come along as we test, dive, learn, and figure out if our anchoring setup is truly ready for the deeper anchorages up the coast. ? *Hop aboard & follow our journey* ?
