Prop'ed near the rocks while hauling up the anchor Catalina Island on a Sailboat
Season 4 | Episode 81 | Sailing off the anchor and diving on the prop near Catalina Island
On this episode we haul up the anchor at Button Shell Beach so we can make our way to a new, hopefully friendlier, anchorage further North.
While we were fighting to haul up the 80lbs of 3/8 chain and 35lb anchor in 70 ft of water our long painter line found its way into our propeller and “Prop’ed” us leaving us with no engine, an anchor that was half way up after a hard struggle very near to the rocks.
We hoisted the sails and sailed away from land with the light breeze that was coming off the island and made our way to deeper water to finish hauling up the anchor.
Watch the episode to see Camille dive on the prop and get us back under way as we find a new incredible anchorage near Little Gibraltar.
There is also a new episode of A Stern View Podcast up where we talk about our experiences at Button Shell Beach….Find that on our website or on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts !

Sailing Triteia
My name is James and I have recently untied the lines for good and set off to start a slow circumnavigation of this big beautiful world. After 4+ years of refitting my 1965 Alberg 30 she is finally ready for some serious sailing. In 2021 I completed my first solo ocean crossing from Los Angeles to Hawaii traveling 2300 nm and will be heading south in the summer of 2022, bound for the South Pacific.
