In 2011 I was sailing a very beaten up schooner called "Gloria" around the Caribbean isles that make up the Grenadines. This schooner I had purchased with practically the last of my cash for f1500. One thing led to another and having little work but plenty of time myself and some friends sailed Gloria across the Atlantic. We had many adventures, not least was the oil pressure on the engine going AWOL. But eventually we did fetch up in St Lucia. There my lady friend Helen re joined us and one of the crew left.
Our next stop was the isle of Bequia, the aviator book warned that the holding for the anchor in the main bay was not too great and to be attentive of yachts pulling their anchors. However we didn't hit anything and came to rest in a relatively sheltered place. beach freedom and buddy Edmund donned snorkels and masks and dived to check said anchor, it was not dug in very well at all, so I piled some stone on it. Afterward after surfacing we put another anchor out to make sure. The problem was that the sea bed was not very deep sand over coral, and also the anchor was having trouble biting.
A few nights later during another squall I had my slumber disturbed by the unmistakable sound of double diesels going hard astern, on coming from my berth and running topsides I saw a sizable catamaran very close to our bow taking evasive action. He'd clearly pulled his anchor and just managed to miss us and regain his gear before going off to try again someplace else.
This scenario was rein acted several times over our stay in the various Islands. We didn't drag, with no engine we couldn't manage to, so we put down lots of chain and an added anchor at every stop. beach babes will enjoy the solution I found to this problem.
The group of yacht uses we had most trouble with were the ones who charter their yachts, a few of these folks never have had a great deal of expertise in Anchoring, and there's quite a great deal of technology to what on the surface appears a simple manoeuvre. These individuals, tend not to have spent large quantity of time in close proximity to other people as in a modest yacht surroundings. These individuals are the kind which haven't come face to face with bare human bodies except in some specific scenarios. In fact I found that if I seemed nude in the cockpit while I read a novel and waved to the recently arriving charter yachts of an evening, they would go right around to the different side of the bay, "hey presto" issue sorted!)
