Anchoring for 50 Knots

Aug. 6, 2018

Dragging anchor is no fun. At best, you end up on deck in less than ideal conditions -- often the middle of the night and/or a squall. At worst, there's boat damage and injury to people.

By always anchoring as if we know it'll blow 50, we're ready for the times it does. Here, Carolyn Shearlock explains their technique.
