TOWING
TOWING BOAT
- Tow another boat at a reduced speed and as smoothly as you can.
- Pay particular attention when you throw or catch the towing rope (it may foul on the
propeller).
Note: The stability may be reduced when you tow a boat.
TOWED BOAT
- Keep steering your boat and see to it that you stay in the wake of the towing boat.
- Inappropriate towing can damage your vessel, do not tow at more than 6 knots.
GROUND TACKLE
As a rule, set the anchor in at least 3 times the depth of water.
- Have your boat pointed into the wind and without speed.
- Pay out the chain while moving back slowly.
ANCHORING WITH ELECTRIC WINDLASS
- Check that the electrical supply of the windlass is switched on (battery switch, circuit
breaker).
- Use the remote control to activate the windlass in lowering mode. Let the chain feed
out by keeping the lowering button on the remote control pressed down.
- Let the chain out while moving backwards slowly and as straight as possible.
- Once the anchor snags, make it fast by reversing slightly.
- Secure the hawser or the chain to the cleat .
PRECAUTION
Before anchoring check the depth of water, the power of the current and the nature of
the sea bed.
For electric windlass:
Keep the engine running during the anchoring operations to avoid discharging the
batteries.
WARNING
Windlass operations are dangerous:
- Always keep the anchor line unfouled and free.
- Always proceed with care, using gloves and always wearing shoes.
- If your boat is equipped with the twin control optional extra, make sure you
use only one control at the same time.
