- Sailing off on a great adventure is sometimes best done WITHOUT A PLAN! In this episode, we SAIL SHORTHANDED to ANNAPOLIS, Maryland, one of the GREATEST SAILING DESTINATIONS on the Chesapeake Bay. Orly spots a few DOLPHINS in the bay and Saylor figures out where to drop the hook.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video. What a fantastic environment you guys sail and anchor.
The northern bay is an easy place to cruise without a plan. Go where the wind takes you.
If you aren't using an anchor line bridal I suggest you get one. Mantus makes a great one. It's a bad idea to have a lot of compression on that anchor roller. The stemhead fitting on the T37 is aluminum and you will work the screws loose. A bridal can be run through the chocks and to the bow cleats.
I hadn't thought of the force on the roller, I think a bridle will be on order soon! Do you find that a bridle makes any difference in how much the boat "sails" on anchor? I'm thinking maybe the two points of contact would help stabilize things a bit
Nice video, it was fun to watch. Your video and narrative content is much improved.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback, it goes a long way 🙂
A great anchorage just north of Gibson island around the point near the horse farm! Check it out the next time your are there!
Added to the list! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing.
I imagine your depth sounder is set to 2+ meters, so 0.5 isn't the end of the world.
I hope you can do a tour of your boats interior sometime soon.
Especially any changes you have made, and any you wish you had made.
Oh, my boat is an Ericson 25, mk1 with centerboard.
I rarely lift the board but appreciate it when in the shadows.
We're planning a boat tour video sometime soon, so stay tuned for that 🙂 I used to not be a big fan of centerboard boats but the more I sail with one, the more I like it!
Boat tour for your followers???
That's on our to-do list!
