The stem is fitted with a stainless steel fitting with a double roller which ena-
bles you to sail when the anchor is home.
The fore deck is fitted with an electric windlass. Once the boat is anchored, keep an eye on the swinging space.
Before you anchor, check the type of the sea bed, the depth of water and the
strength of the stream.
Slip the anchor at least 3 times the depth of water.
A quality anchoring depends on both the chain (its weight makes the boat
stabilize) and the anchor.
