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.

Ahoy! Sailing bliss or disaster? We're leaving the Eagle Point marinara a raw sail downwind to our marina in Lake Dallas. Cyndi and I have come this far to try our hand at a downwind wing-on-wing sail plan, after an easterly beam reach, then a westward sail. We had a great time practicing the training run and the down-wind sail setup. We leave our old friend, Sneaky Pete's Grill, and Eagle Point Marina behind and press forward, sailing back to Lake Dallas in our Catalina C-30 Tall Rig sailboat named Zanadu!

Ever seen the sunrise and moonset at the same time? 🌅🌕 Standing on the bridge wing of a bulk carrier, nature showed us a moment that most people will never witness from land. The ocean was calm, the sky split between night and day—pure magic only seafarers know. 🌊✨ Stick around to see how unreal this looks!" #oceanmagic #nature #moonset #sunrise #naturephotography [ life at sea, Merchant Navy, humansatsea, indian sailor, maritime world, marine facts, nature bliss ]
