- Our plans to sail to Norfolk, Virginia are thwarted by the New England winter weather. We pull in last minute to an anchorage to hide from a storm but it gets the best of us.
Check out what caused us to abandon our boat anchor and tops of our list of scary sailing experiences so far.

HELP US SAVE THE OCEANS
Since we live on the ocean and love it so much, we are trying to help save it. We changed all of our sunscreen, shampoos and body soaps on-board to ensure they are lake, river and reef friendly. Please, if we can influence one thing you do, make the change with us and help us save the ocean!

good job posting...I bought mantus..must b typical problem with anchoring..me too..anchor t feel safe..hard when they drag..never know..thanks
I found it got drastically better when we got rid of the CQR and switched to all chain. Haven't had a problem since!
Enjoying the series!
Like the boat. Like your chemistry...
If "she's the skipper" why does the boat have a not American flag?
I am Canadian :) and that boat was owned by John before "she" became the Skipper! Keep watching you'll see! Xx
Scary stuff but hey you coped and picked up some amazing experience.
Always just trying to come out the other side having learned something!!
Cool you did it 😊
Glad we made it through this one!
those drone shots were truly amazing!! glad you got your anchor back
John has been practicing! So hopefully the drone shots only get better and better!! ❤️ We got it back thank goodness but it continues to cause problems, not our favourite anchor brand!! ⚓
Greetings from one new UA-cam Sailing channel to another! We are still remodeling, so not cruising yet... if you are ever near North Carolina let us know!
Cool! Nice to meet you guys - if only we had known when we were in NC! What kind of boat are you working on?
Already passed NC... hehe... UA-cam time delay! It is a 1974 Gulfstar 44, check out our videos if you get a chance.
It was so hectic getting through the winter weather we didn't have time to make the videos yet!!
It will all be better once in Bora Bora... 😁
Ahhhh don't leave me dreaming, right now the windward path to the Dominican has me intimidated!!
Things always go bad at the worst possible time! Don't you love cruising !
Ask me every day of the week and I'll give you a different answer!!
