You can tell this guy could do this asleep! No bs just pure skill, knowledge and experience. Legend!
I love how he always stays calm. Gives clear inctructions to his crew and plans ahead. Just how it should be.
Here in the Florida Keys I use these techniques every time we anchor, even in calm conditions. We frequently have 40+ kt squalls and thunderstorms come through, usually at 2:00 AM when we're sound asleep. It makes sense to me to anchor every time as if we're going to wind up in heavy weather conditions.
You can tell this is a man who does not suffer fools gladly. You do what he tells you, and he explains and teaches as he goes.
I like how with Skip theres no foolin' aroun'. He tells it in a simple fashion without excess personality. His boats & his style are simple to work with, just what I expect you need in difficult, dangerous situations.
Mr. Novak, by you sailing around Cabo de Hornos I must congratulate you. I am from Chile and I know the south Pacific is very difficult.
Man, you know what you are talking about ! Thank you.
I half expected another video made by a certified UA-cam saylor... nope... this guy know his business... a rare seaman. Highly recommended.
It's tough to imagine a better premise for a storm anchoring video. Skip Novak sharing 40 years of yachting experience a few NM away from Cape Horn.
I love the cup of tea at the end of every video. Great stuff.
Makes it look easy. Thanks for the upload
Great information, well presented, no fluff. A+
Anchors and ground tackle are the most important emergency gear to be found on a boat. However, without the knowledge of how to use them, they are useless... This video has been added to our playlist Essential Sailing Knowledge. Thank you for sharing. Chris (& Rossella) 👍
Amazing videos! Thanks for sharing your expertise!
Absolutely spot on! Great vid and a number of pragmatic points. Well done!
For me the best skip with realistic ideas to really manage major problems of sailing
What a great video, thanks for explaining how it should be done.
Bravo, amd thank you very much for sharing your experience !
thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. God bless you.
All very straightforward and logical - once you know what you're doing! Many thanks for a fine, simplified demonstration video.
