In beach freedom was sailing an extremely beaten up schooner called "Gloria" around the Caribbean isles that make up the Grenadines. This schooner I'd bought with almost the last of my cash for f1500. We had many experiences, not least was the oil pressure on the engine going AWOL. But eventually beach girl did fetch up in St Lucia. There my lady friend Helen re-joined us and among the crew left.
nudist was the island of Bequia, the pilot book warned that the holding for the anchor in the primary bay was not so good and to be cautious of yachts pulling their anchors. We came in during a gale force squall, complete with flat rain (warm), without an engine the manoeuvre was a trifle challenging. Yet we didn't hit anything and came to rest in a relatively sheltered spot. Myself and buddy Edmund donned snorkels and masks and dived to check said anchor, it was not dug in very well at all, so I stacked some rocks on it. Subsequently after surfacing we put another anchor out to make sure. The problem was that the sea bed wasn't very deep sand over coral, and the anchor was having trouble biting.
A couple of nights later during another squall I had my slumber disturbed by the unmistakable sound of double diesels going hard astern, on coming from my bunk and running topsides I saw a large catamaran quite close to our bow taking evasive action. He'd clearly pulled his anchor and just managed to miss us and retrieve his gear before going off to try again somewhere else.
This scenario was rein acted several times over our stay in the many Isles. We did not pull, with no engine we couldn't afford to, so we put down lots of chain and an added anchor at each stop. However, after we got hit by two yachts one night at the exact same time, I resolved to find a solution to this issue. beach party will enjoy the solution I found to this problem.
beach party of yacht uses we'd most trouble with were the ones who charter their yachts, some of these folks have not had plenty of experience in Anchoring, and there's quite a lot of technology to what on the surface appears a easy manoeuvre. These individuals, tend not to have spent big amount of time in close proximity to other people as in a little yacht surroundings. These individuals are the type that have not come face to face with bare human bodies except in some specific scenarios. In fact I found that if I seemed naked in the cockpit while I read a novel and waved to the recently arriving charter yachts of an evening, they would go right over to the other side of the bay, "hey presto" issue sorted!)
