I definitely stay on board and fight for my boat. I don't believe in tandem anchoring. Too much adverse data. One or two big anchors from Rocna, Spade, or Raya each on their own rode and/or stern lines ashore based on the hole and the likely wind direction *where* *you* *are* accounting for funneling and local effects. _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://www.liveaboardnow.org/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardnow.org/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
