Attaching a Jordan series drogue onto our Antares 44i catamaran (Scenario 1).

Storm sailing tactics are best reviewed and decided well before needed in earnest. Once deployed, a drogue anchor can exert several thousand pounds of force on a boat’s mooring cleats. I suspect if attached to only one cleat, it would be ripped out. I therefore had to configure a solution that would distribute the load to multiple cleats. In this video, we explore the four cleat option.
