Hi Mark, the Inspire and Learn series is all about giving you the confidence to manage a catamaran yourself. All of these things are able to be done single-handed with a bit of practice. We will definitely consider some videos specifically only featuring single-handed usage.

Hi TMG, I think that i am missing the part where the anchor is pulled in to the ground. Now in the video it looks like you pull on the anchor with the windlass but in reality the bridle should be used to pull the anchor in the ground with +- 1500 rpm backwards.

Hi Sea Heroes, hope you are enjoying your Lagoon adventures. You are right in saying this is another approach, both work and this is just the way we personally prefer.

I agree with the comment. With the method shown, you're in reverse with the engine powered up to ensure a good set, and all the force is on the windlass. That's what you warned not to do via pulling the boat forward with the windlass. With this boat it would seem that, before you are ready to back down harder on the anchor, you could attach the chain shackle to the chain just aft of the bow roller and cleat the snubber line off on that mid ship cleat. Then you can back down on it and the cleat is taking all the force, not the windlass. Once set, attach the bridle.

100% agree with both comments. The video is very good at teaching the basics and helping beginners learn good techniques, however if you're going to publish authoritative videos you should make sure that critical feedback is taken and the videos are instructing the best approach. As both comments have already pointed out you should not back down on the anchor using the windlass to hold the anchor. Two reasons for this, one is the strain on the windlass and second the bridal attachment will change the scope significantly, especially in shallower anchorages. Other tips can be provided as well like marking the chain with paint, chain markers, zip ties to measure distance. My last bit of feedback is maybe don't do these videos in the most perfect conditions,you don't need to demonstrate in 20kts in a tricky anchorage but having some breeze, common will greatly help make them more realistic

Is it possible to tell where you got the anchor bridle snubber latch that you have? Ours doesn't have a latching system and did come lose from the chain, it's an open hook. I'd like to get one like what you show, but I haven't been able to search one like that. Thank you for any insight.

Hi, Thanks for this great video. Any tips when having to anchor stern as well?
@TMGYachts
@TMGYachts 3 жыл бұрын
A stern anchor is not an option on these catamarans so it won't be a demonstration that we can offer, unfortunately. We recommend talking to the dealer of the specific boat that you would like to anchor from the stern.

Would you ever set a second anchor off the bow for extra holding (about 60 degrees apart) - we do this with monohulls. Not sure how you would do this in a catamaran. (Same with a Bahamanian anchor setup - two off bow at 180 degrees).

Lagoon 42 catamarans no longer come with the chain grip that has a locking pin. Our chain grip keeps falling off the chain. How do you stop this from happening? We have tried to purchase the Richard 2985 chain grip containing the locking pin, but have been told that these are old models and no longer produced.

Let me start with I've never sailed a boat before. I'm just a youtube watcher. In watching videos on anchoring it would seem to me to be beneficial to attach a rope that is attached to a floating object to the anchor to keep up with where the anchor is located. If you are in 4 meters of water then attach a rope with 5 meters of slack to the anchor. Then you could easily look out and see what your location to the anchor is at all times. The fact that after 1000s of years of sailing nobody does this there must be a logical reason why that wouldn't be a good idea.

Hello, but the bridle rubs against the stays of the bowsprit and that brings a lot of noise into the boat. It is better to run the bridle around the outside of the stays, not inside.
