Please give me strength! I seriously think I need it this week! We stay in stunning anchorages, with impressive scenery and have the most amazing adventures! I feel totally blessed for my wonderful life and sometimes complete staggering isolation! But generally on a boat if you have a problem.... its a real PROBLEM, as you will see this episode as we try and retrieve our fouled anchor in big winds and swell!

I'm glad you got that anchor free without ripping the front of the boat off. Chris is correct in stating that stainless steel is soft, but he did a good job of getting it workable again.

Very exciting video. Glad Chris was able to get chain loose from the coral rocks without damaging the windless or any other part of the front of the boat. Awesome drone footage of the shore line & your topless swimming while Buddy watched & seemed concerned. Then flying the drone to get closeups of Beau, Bear & himself was skillful & fun to watch. Very peaceful anchorage even with all the excitement & wind.

He did a great job! It was super tricky getting that straight, and a bit scary with that massive load put on all our deck equipment too!
