Advanced Anchoring & Mooring

The difference between control and chaos lies in the anchor chain. Anchoring is both science and instinct. This course transforms your understanding of holding ground, current, and wind. You’ll master the art of setting an anchor that stays, maneuvering in tight harbors, and handling emergency drops with calm confidence. When the wind rises, you’ll know your boat will not move an inch.

Focus: Confident anchoring in all conditions

Syllabus:

· Anchor types & holding ground selection

· Calculating scope (chain/warp)

· Setting and checking the anchor

· Bahamian moor / stern anchor

· Med-mooring & side tie techniques

 · Fouled anchor recovery

· Emergency anchoring drills
