Anchoring My 31ft boat in Catalina Island
In this video I am testing out the live aboard lifestyle by staying on an anchor overnight and getting it back on board! show you guys our pattern of where we swung on anchor overnight! It’s super cool to see the app track my movements! I show you guys my new mushroom anchor I got and using it for the first time for a quick snorkel with the pups Maui and Kiki. The orange and Blue fish are my favorite! Then I show you how I pull in my rocker stopper and put it away! (Bonus points for whoever can tell me how many times I said “Rocker Stopper” in the video! Lol) I then pull up the anchor which was a challenge! My plan luckily worked, which was to pull in some rope, cleat it off, and pull the slack through the windlass, repeat. This worked to get to the chain then I used my snubber line to relieve the tension from the chain so I could get it around the windlass. Off camera (it unfortunately died and I had to change the battery) the chain slipped through the windlass and I had to grab my tool to tighten it and luckily once I tightened it, it didn’t slip once! Then the windlass worked Perfectly and I didn’t have to pull up the anchor by hand anymore! After I get the anchor put away we start out journey to emerald bay, but first a stop in two harbors for water! It’s pretty windy once I arrive in emerald and getting the mooring on came with some challenges. Thank you for watching! In the next video I will show you emerald bay and the beautiful snorkeling it has! emerald bay is one of my favorite places to be in Catalina!
