Anchorwork

• Choose an anchoring position that remains viable through the expected wind, stream and water-level changes, with sufficient depth, approach, escape, holding potential and swinging room.
• Recognise common yacht-anchor geometries and evaluate the complete installed anchor, rode, fittings and recovery arrangement without assuming one design is best everywhere.
• Brief, lower, lay and set an anchor under control, calculate a starting cable length from maximum bow-to-seabed depth, and verify the result with more than one position cue.
