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.

Oggi dobbiamo percorrere 33 Miglia. Ormai ci sembrano una passeggiata, ma occupano pur sempre un pomeriggio. Partiamo più tardi di quanto avremmo voluto a causa di un ritardo burocratico. Salutiamo con una bella stretta di mano Carlos, il supervisore dell’intelligence con il quale abbiamo finito per stringere amicizia. Poi via! L’umore è alto (due tonnetti per cena!), il meteo un po’ meno.. piove. PIOVE molto. Ma va bene così. Oggi ci rendiamo conto di una cosa: quanto sia sporca Julia sotto e di quanto ci sia bisogno di un buon cantiere per fare carena. Ci sembra che sia zoppa...rispetto a quando l’opera viva della barca (quella che sta in acqua) è bella pulita l’avanzamento è iper rallentato. Qui abbiamo intravisto un cantiere. Domani faremo un salto in zona per indagare 👀 La giornata scivola serena, tra maschere per il viso, scrosci d’acqua pesca e lettura, fino all’arrivo alla marina di Zarpar in cui, per ora, sembra di vivere in un film. Domani vi racconteremo tutto ✨ AC
