I’ve seen you! I saw the dragon and was like “Wait a minute!” We were boating on Kerr Lake. I took several pictures of your sailing yacht it’s absolutely beautiful! My niece thinks you’re a fancy pirate. Love that you have a channel.

Any anchor can trip by the boat swinging to wind or current. The variables are endlessly debated: the style of anchor, the type of bottom, how the anchor was set, the type of rode, the scope of rode set, yadda yadda. Prepare yourself for the onslaught of opinions! It's like asking what's the best oil to use! 😅 Bottom line: we all drag at times. It's great that you have had this opportunity to experience it without it being an "oh shit" moment! 🤗 Keep on truckin', Doug...you're out there doing it with a great attitude about learning new things. Bravo!

Yes you certainly can trip your own anchor even if it's set really well.

Ghost shark. Don't look for it, that's when it gets you.

“Rode” is what connects the anchor to the boat. It can be chain or rope.

YOU NEED AT LEAST 7-10 : 1 SCOPE TO SET AND HOLD A ANCHOR.. YOUR IN 20FT OF WATER SO YOU NEED AT LEAST 200FT OF CHAIN OUT TO SET AND HOLD THE ANCHOR. SO LET OUT MORE CHAIN...

this guy is that septic guys father

I think you need to invent a self contained anchor watching robotic submersible. It would just circle Seeker like a junk yard dog and if Seeker moved it would surface and send you a text while barking.

They are releasing a bunch of water with expectations of the hurricane bringing alot of rain. I noticed the current stronger than i have ever noticed it before on the Tennessee River yesterday in Wheeler reservoir.

You forgot the e brake, happens to
me all the time. 😂

I'd guess that your chain may have dropped a loop around the anchor fluke after the anchor hit bottom. That could prevent the anchor from setting properly. I've had my chain foul the anchor and pull it out when the wind or tide switched directions too. You can put the engine in reverse after dropping the anchor to make sure it sets or use an anchor alarm to warn you if you drift. I'm going to give you some points for noticing that you had drifted!

Don’t even own an anchor!! So yes?!?!😅 keep the videos coming!

I always use 7 times the depth for the length of my chain if I'm staying the night. Five times for a short stop.

You should have 5x1 on chain to depth. And the depth should include your freeboard. So if your freeboard is 6ft then you should count your depth as 25ft. So at 25Ft you should have 125ft of chain out.
Depending on your boat you might even want 7x1 which should be 175ft.
Im currently living on a 55ft catamaran. In La Paz Mexico we had to have 7x1 because of the tide and wind conditions. We drug twice at 5x1, so we went to 7x1 and were fine.
Yes you can trip the anchor. All it takes is a 90* degree plus of wind change. If you have a full 180* You could drag a ways before the anchor resets.
One night we drug 200+ft because we had a squal hit us 180* from where we were sitting. We had 245ft of chain out in 32ft (including freeboard). We accelerated for almost 500ft before we tripped the anchor and it took a while for it to reset.

bro, bro, bro please. You're a sailor now. There are no more miles per hour. You've been set free. Knots.

As a commercial fisherman that uses anchors for most of what I do yes if you got an anchor doesn't matter your style if you spend that sucker around you can get the chain balled up into it and you can flip the anchor over and drag it what we call here where I'm from we call that tripping the anchor and that's how we haul it into the water

Holy cow! You got her in the water!

Depends on the wind, the bottom, and the length of rode. If the wind direction moves during the night, and you have a somewhat rocky bottom, then yes, you may drag. Happens more with a danforth design, since shifting back over the anchor will yank the flukes out of the bottom, and they need to re-catch in the new direction. This is all real important if your anchoring in a bay around other boats. You need to have a 360 degree free area of the length of anchor line plus 10-20% if the wind changes during the night. Putting out two anchors 45 degree diagonally across from each other helps.

5-1 ratio is ok for a lunch anchor. To stay put in any blow or current, you need 7-1

Usually, when an anchor moves, it's either octopus or mermaids, although the latter are getting harder to find. larger anchors (too heavy for either of the other culprits) can sometimes be moved or even entirely stolen by kraken, but incidents of kraken-related anchor theft are even rarer than those perpetrated by mermaids. This problem can be remedied by tying silver (or stainless steel) spoons along the lower length of anchor chain, and to the anchor itself. the spoons have the effect of reflecting-back to the would-be thief/dis-lodger a hideously distorted image of themselves, at which point they immediately shit/ink themselves and rapidly depart the area. at least, that's what I got told once by an old sailor in a pub, but it sounds perfectly plausible to me so I reckon it's good advice. Do I actually know anything? no. Is that going to stop me from wasting five minutes of my life writing (hopefully amusing) nonsense on the internet? HELL NO!
