This schooner I had purchased with virtually the last of my cash for f1500. We had many adventures, not least was the oil pressure on the engine going AWOL. There my lady friend Helen re-joined us and among the crew left.
Our next stop was the isle of Bequia, the aviator book warned that the holding for the anchor in the main bay wasn't too great and to be mindful of yachts dragging their anchors. However we didn't hit anything and came to rest in a reasonably sheltered area. Myself and buddy Edmund donned snorkels and masks and dived to assess said anchor, it was not dug in very well at all, so I piled some rocks on it. Afterward after surfacing we place another anchor out to make sure. The problem was that the sea bed wasn't so deep sand over coral, and the anchor was having trouble biting.
A couple of nights later during another squall I 'd my slumber touched by the unmistakable sound of double diesels going hard astern, on emerging from my berth and running topsides I saw a sizable catamaran quite close to our bow taking evasive action. He had obviously pulled his anchor and just managed to miss us and recover his equipment before going away to try again someplace else.
This scenario was rein acted many times over our stay in the assorted Isles. We did not drag, with no engine we could not manage to, so we put down tons of chain and an added anchor at each stop. You dear fellow naturists will like the solution I found to this problem.
The group of yacht uses we'd most trouble with were the ones who charter their yachts, a few of these folks haven't had a great deal of expertise in Anchoring, and there's rather plenty of technology to what on the surface appears a easy manoeuvre. These people, tend not to have spent large quantity of time in close proximity to other people as in a modest yacht surroundings. These individuals are the kind which never have come face to face with bare human bodies except in some specific situations. In fact I found that if I seemed nude in the cockpit while I read a novel and waved to the just arriving charter yachts of an evening, they would go right around to the different side of the bay, "hey presto" issue sorted!)
