La plupart des plaisanciers pensent que tout repose sur l’ancre… mais le vrai secret d’un mouillage qui tient, c’est surtout le poids de l’ensemble « ancre + chaîne » Si seule l’ancre travaille et que la chaîne est tendue sans toucher le fond, ton bateau risque de décrocher au moindre coup de vent ou changement de courant. Un bon mouillage, c’est quand : ✔️ l’ancre est bien engagée ✔️ une partie de la chaîne repose sur le fond ✔️ la traction reste la plus horizontale possible C’est le poids de la chaîne au fond qui absorbe les à-coups et permet à l’ancre de rester correctement plantée. Retiens ça : Une grosse ancre sans bonne longueur de chaîne = mouillage moyen Une ancre adaptée + une chaîne qui travaille correctement = bateau sécurisé Sauvegarde ce réel pour tes prochaines nuits au mouillage !

There’s a typhoon in the forecast—at least according to one of the weather models—and it could sweep right over Amami next week. So it’s prep time aboard Wahine. Today I’m taking down the jib sail, adding fenders, securing gear, and making sure both inside and out are storm-ready. It’s a strangely calm and beautiful morning. Perfect weather… for storm prep. ANd a pleasant break from writing. Living on a boat along in a Bay by a remote Japanese village means you don’t just watch the forecast, you respect it. Join me for a short glimpse into the practical side of slow living at sea: a mix of solitude, muscle memory, and quiet readiness. 🎥 Shot on location in Buren Village, Amami Oshima 🌸 Part of the Never Too Late Longevity Project 📚 From the author of A Journey Beyond the Blue Zone #TyphoonPrep #BoatLifeJapan #AmamiOshima #SailingJapan #RemoteIslandLife #NeverTooLate #PacificSolo #SoloSailing #StormReady #CalmBeforeTheStorm #JibSail #TyphoonSeason #JapanWeather #LifeAtSea #BlueZoneJapan #boatlife #japan #solosailor
