Anchor chain length for med

I agree with everything you say.

I saw a photo of a yacht recently and on deck was an outboard (attached to the pushpit), gas bottles x2, 2X jerry cans of fuel, inflatable dinghy, solar panels, life-raft and a hard dodger. I wonder how stable that yacht was?

Lots of boats have more people weight on deck.

I've been trying to work out the yacht you sail because I have a few questions, particularly about the amount of water you carry and ballast ratio. But that would be off topic so I will start a new thread shortly.

My workmate bought himself a brand new 30ft fly bridge launch. He loaned it one w/e to his son who took it offshore to an island where he and his friends had a party on board. About ten of his mates decided it would be a good idea to all get up on the fly bridge but the launch capsized and sunk before they could. (Dad was not happy)
