Anchoring is easy once you know how to do it. You find a spot that looks like good holding, drop the anchor while slowly backing the boat up (so the chain leads out rather than falling into a big clump). Once all the chain is out (5x the depth), you pull back using the engine to set the anchor into the seabed. As long as the anchor is holding while in reverse, you’re good to go! Once the engine is off, jump in water and check out the anchor. Checkout SailingBritican on YouTube for the full video. #sailing #sailingexperience #sailingexperiences
Day 3 of our Christmas calendar takes us to the aft cabin—our cozy retreat and one of the biggest reasons we chose a center cockpit boat! 🛥️ Here’s what makes this cabin so special: 🛌 A 160 cm wide bed that fits both of us (and our dog 🐶) comfortably. ⛽ We’re literally sleeping on top of 280 liters of diesel—don’t worry, it’s well-sealed! 😉 🌬️ The bed has slats underneath to prevent moisture buildup and keep our mattress fresh. 🔧 Beneath the bed, we house our hydraulic autopilot pump, though soundproofing is on our to-do list! For storage, we have 3 cabinets, perfect for clothes and gear—everything we need for life onboard. This cabin truly feels like home, offering comfort and functionality no matter where we sail. What do you think of our aft cabin? Any questions or tips for optimizing storage? Let us know in the comments! 💬 🎥 Join us tomorrow as we explore more of Vela! 🎵 Music by Sergio Prosvirini from Pixabay #YouTubeShorts #Explore #TravelVlog #Vloggers #DailyLife #ChristmasCalendar #Vlogmas #ChristmasOnBoard #Beneteau44cc #Sailing #Liveaboard #LifeAtSea
Cole talks about her next project – she is competing for Monaco in the Admiral's Cup this year which includes Fastnet. We took the opportunity to jump on board First Light and grab a very quick interview on the run with Cole with just a phone. The sound is a bit rough but audible and worth the listen. #colebraueroceanracing. #zaoceanracing #onestopmarine #middleharbouryachtclub
