After an extended AP the Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race fleet tacked their way out of Sydney Harbour in an 8-10 nor’easter. The four supermaxis, Comanche, Wild Oats XI, Black Jack and InfoTrack lead the fleet out of the Heads in the highly anticipated rematch following last year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart Race.
I wanted to show you exactly how a boat anchor behaves on the sea floor. I found a nice popular anchorage where the tide had gone out, exposing the same sandy bottom that the boats in the distance are anchoring in, so we can see exactly what is going on, without the sea being in the way. If you measure the distance from the bow roller to the seabed at high tide, and pay out at least five times that much chain, which is known as 5:1 scope, the anchor should untangle itself and reset in most situations.
