The sweat stains on our brow and under arms were growing with the anticipation. We’d managed to get ourselves into this bow and stern anchorage “like an old salt” (so we were told). But could we get ourselves out with the same facade?
We knew sailing into Hiva Oa in the Marquesas, that we would be met with this new challenge of bow and stern anchoring. Active Captain and Noonsite.com both had fellow sailors sharing their cautionary tales and tips. That’s cool we thought, it wouldn’t be an adventure if we weren’t trying something new.
So, a tight anchorage, restriction zone and constant swell schools us in setting up and breaking down our stern anchor.
⭐ After you hit that play button we’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below: Did you like the Stop Animation? How about that new intro, map, sound effects and transitions? We create these vids for you, and we always welcome quality feedback.

Gone with the Wynns
Hello. We’re Jason and Nikki Wynn, a couple of explorers, modern-day documentarians, and cultivators of curiosity. We believe Curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It’s what pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions and helps us embrace the great unknown. The future is a sea of uncertainty and each of us has a choice: to focus on problems or possibilities. Our goal is to cultivate a sense of curiosity about what is possible. “Every explorer I have met has been driven—not coincidentally but quintessentially—by curiosity, by a single-minded, insatiable, and even jubilant need to know.” ― Jacques-Yves Cousteau You can learn a lot more about us on our website: https://gonewiththewynns.com
