Fenders at anchor ....

[Mark-1]

Utterly clear turquoise water at 28 degrees, a hot blue sky, a smell of rosemary and olive trees baking in the sun and a bunch of tavernas and twisty old streets just a tender ride away

Gosport or Campbelltown?

Gosport or Campbelltown?

I’m just being nostalgic about the Med. I’m actually sitting in my cockpit in a concrete marina surrounded by big car parks and with one of the many daily ferries unloading lorries nearby.

Does nobody keep an anchor watch any more when circumstances necessitate being in an unsatisfactory anchorage without the option of moving to a better one?

 

[Biggles Wader]

We used to hang a couple of filthy old tyres off the bow and stern and that seemed to ensure no one anchored anywhere near. Make sure they dont touch the hull though as they leave nasty smears.
