Another Boat Hooked Our Anchor Chain - Med Mooring Mishap
🏝️ We thought Kaprije would be another peaceful stop along Croatia's stunning Dalmatian Coast... until another boat accidentally hooked our anchor chain.
After motor sailing from Šibenik, we arrive at the beautiful island of Kaprije and find the perfect spot to Med moor. With Sea Moon safely secured, we spend the afternoon exploring the quiet harbour, wandering the charming streets and admiring the abundance of fruit trees that make this little island so special.
But our relaxing day takes an unexpected turn when another yacht arrives to Med moor. One small mistake leaves their anchor hooked over our anchor chain, and for a few tense minutes the two boats are literally connected.
Join us as we show exactly what happened, how the situation was resolved, and the key lessons every skipper can take away from this real-life Med mooring incident.
Whether you're an experienced sailor, dreaming of cruising the Mediterranean, or simply love exploring beautiful destinations, we hope you'll enjoy coming aboard.
