vanessan Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Don’t think he was a newbie! Could be a new use for a mudweight. 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 you would have to be very trusting that the anchor was going to hold, useful also in the manouver to undock I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 So that’s where I went wrong down Thurne Dyke in the wind. I should have thrown the mud weight out to the side!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanessan Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I suppose the cross channel ferries work on a similar principle in high winds. They have the help of a line from a tug holding them back, fascinating to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
