    Thanks for those graphics. I've read anchoring tips in books and magazines, but the video was so clear that it was like a light bulb going off. Well done.

      You're most welcome Bert. The graphics are fun but take a long time to animate so I'm glad they help 😊

    Those diagrams were really helpful. I had not thought of the short swing of moorings before.

    Great video. I second the nice work with the animation! Love all the videos that help out where people make the most mistakes. These videos are a must have for newer sailors (and perhaps experienced ones too!).

      Thanks for your kind words Chris. The animations were fun to do but took ALOT of time so Im glad people appreciate them :-)

    Great video. Anchoring has always been my Achilles Heel. Thank you for the great tips.

    Hi guys, thanks for your ongoing episodes, they are incredibly educational as well as entertaining. I was wondering are there any good cruising guide that you would recommend for the med? (initially french rivera and italy), but eventually all??
    thanks, Bill

      You're welcome Bill! Glad you find the videos useful!
      Back in the 2000's we sailed/filmed for 7 years in the Med making the first 5 seasons of Distant Shores over there. Loved it!
      We used the excellent series by Rod Heikel and the RCC Pilotage/IMRAY www.imray.com/publications/Imray+Pilots/Pilots+and+Cruising+Guides/Mediterranean/
