We're almost always the only boat anchored at this beautiful anchorage north of San Francisco bay: Drakes bay. It's a beautiful place to drop your anchor and enjoy some barely touched landscape, and an abundance of wild life. #ourladydefiant #sailboat #anchor

Crew member, John, shares his experience sailing on Saga47swan from Bahamas to St Martin - 1000 nm ocean passage beating into SE winds for 10 days. Lots of sail trim and fishing ! #offshoresailing #sailing #bluewatersailing #bahamas

From calm seas to chaos in a heartbeat 🌊🚤. Mid-Atlantic, a submerged obstacle shattered our boat’s daggerboard, flooding the ocean’s vastness. That life-changing moment taught me the true risks behind speed. Now, I’ll never sell a boat with fixed daggerboards—safety first! ⚓️✨#multihullsailing #cruisinglife #catamarans #McConaghyBoats #shorts

The modern Catamarans are made for comfort and not so much for sailing, that means they project a very large beam surface and the anchor cannot be effective with more than 15 kts of Crossing wind. To make the anchor effective you must upgrade to maybe 50 kg witch is unrealistic for this kind of boats, so make sure you protect your leeward quarter with a round fender or even better a permanent fender that can protect from any kind of accidental touch to the dock during your backing as well.
