E47 ANCHOR Dragging CHAOS - Destruction of 100 YEAR'S worth of SEAGRASS

E47 ANCHOR Dragging CHAOS – Destruction of 100 YEAR’S worth of SEAGRASS

Join us for this weeks episode as we arrive in Palma to see Team Ineos’ Americas Cup boat blasting around the bay before going on to watch my brother Elliot Hanson, an Olympian racing in his Laser class dinghy. We took Dad + Hannah (his partner) out on the boat to watch, which was a very special couple of days.

After this we moved round the corner to Cala Xinxell where we watched a lot of anchor chaos unfold. A local charter boat with skipper on board proceeded to anchor in the protected Poisidonia (seagrass), and then drag anchor, killing literally hundreds of years of cumulative growth. The grass grows at 1 millimetre per year.

Then another boat dragged onto our friends SV Arlequin, and then again onto Sailing Saffron (Chris + Amy). We then had to help them as their throttle box later broke and their boat was stuck in forward gear.
