When we arrived at the anchorage, Holly handled the windlass while I talked through how we set the anchor. We’ve also got the anchor alarm running on a split screen, so you can see it working in real time, including when the alarms go off. The anchor watch is a custom Home Assistant setup that takes GPS, depth, heading and wind data from Signal K. It calculates our swing radius using the amount of rode we’ve put out and the depth, then keeps an eye on the boat for any signs that we’re dragging. If the boat moves outside the area it should be in, both our phones get an alert and the onboard siren sounds, whether we’re awake, asleep, or simply not paying attention. That’s really why we built it: for peace of mind when we’re anchored. We’ve put the full write-up on our website, and Crew members can download the integration and map panel code.

700 miles from land, 30 knot wind, 12 ft seas, Solo sailor. Autopilot down. You don’t know pressure until you’re hand-steering through the Pacific with no backup, no break—and no margin for error. 🎧 Podlink: https://tinyurl.com/SaltyPodcast59 📚 Mark's book: Off the Grid: https://amzn.to/447Xb7V #SaltyAbandon #SaltyPodcast #Sailing #SoloSailing #PacificCrossing

10% of profits from these videos are donated to marine conservation projects in Scotland 🌊 This is the very first video on my new (to me) 26ft Victoria from 1996. I’ll run through the boat buying process from start to finish, head off on the maiden voyage through the Scottish Isles then go on my very first solo sail! Over the next few months I’m hoping to share stories from the sea, with the hope of encouraging others to get outdoors, care for our environment and set off on their own adventures. 🍿 WATCH NEXT: COSTS OF LIVING ON A SAILBOAT: https://youtu.be/WRafLL63ewU?si=GCCMW-YP_aVBLhsp MY FIRST SOLO SAIL: https://youtu.be/AOeVM_hZEuI?si=pdIG6h6Md862Bmbh SHIPWRECK STORIES: https://youtu.be/FC2FycryeXg?si=nzLDLIs3uMVqQ8vG 1000KM OF SOLO BIKE-PACKING: https://youtu.be/lJDS4WUS-F0?si=TtEFNyPF9MtrHCD6 WE CYCLED THE LENGTH OF NEW ZEALAND: https://youtu.be/iEWj6Kcl_NM?si=77ggYVzpBmNQw_m8 EXTRA CONTENT ON PATREON: ⛵ Get access to exclusive uncut sailing videos, support my marine conservation mission, get behind-the-scenes footage and sneak peeks of upcoming adventures: https://www.patreon.com/c/_kayleighbrown MY OTHER SOCIALS: 📸 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/_kayleighbrown/ 📱 TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@kayleighjeanbrown/ 🎥 FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/kayleighjeanbrown/ WITH THANKS: I wanted to say a huge thank you Wild Earth for their continued support.
