ANCHORING
Various sea and bottom conditions require different anchoring systems. Your dealer can
help in choosing rode size and length, anchor chains, and working and storm anchors most
appropriate for your boat and location.
In general, a minimum of two anchors should be carried at all times and enough anchor
rode and chain necessary for the depth of water to be navigated during storm conditions.
Certain anchors are useful for a variety of bottom conditions. Study the charts of the area
to be navigated for information concerning bottom conditions and water depth.
The greatest hazard with a sound permanent mooring is chafe, which can occur to the rode
at the bow chocks. This is the single most common site of failure. Care is advised in the
selection and protection of the rode pennant with appropriate chafing gear. Careful and
regular inspection of moored boats on a regular basis is necessary to ensure the boat's
safety.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT
A number of additional safety items are worthy of your consideration. These range from
safety harnesses to emergency beacons, life rafts, and survival suits. Their use depends
upon the intended use of the yacht. We suggest you investigate the necessity of these
items through discussion with your dealer or local chandler.
MEDICAL KIT
Every yacht should carry a first aid manual, and a medical kit tailored to the specific needs
of the owner. Any ship's store should carry a standard type medical kit. Items in the kit
should include but not be limited to the following:
•
Aspirin
•
Motion sickness pills
•
Adhesive strips and tape
•
Ammonia
