Enjoyed the Chesapeake boat show episode. The Cape Hatteras experience of running out of fuel coming out of a narrow channel is enough to shock any experienced sailor. If you ever have enough time to do a special episode, I would recommend, you do a series on the Chesapeake Bay and it’s tributaries. You could hit all the sailing gunk holes, towns and waterside restaurants River by river. It would be a popular video series. With your draft, you could do the Bohemia, Sasafras, Baltimore, Chester River the largest Manta Ray breeding ground, Sait Michaels, the Wye River, the Choptank, Piankitank, Rapahanick and the Nauticus Maritime Museum in Norfolk Va. like I said, a series. Now that’s a lot of rivers. I know I missed a few. Can’t wait for the Pacific. Are you guys Shellbacks and Bluenose Qualified?

What I noticed was that your downwind lower shroud was very loose, is this normal on your boat? Cheers and Happy New Year.

Just curious, with a boat that expensive, wouldn't you want to spend the money and buy stainless steel rope? Also, as an alternative, why wouldn't you want to have about 50-100ft of stainless steel chain and a high end anchor rope spliced to that? Would the windless not be able to wind up the rope?

If you answered the question about your chain, I couldn't find it. You bought it in England and may have been furnished by the builder. In Europe, U;ve heard that a brand of Italian chain is good. Of course, North American made chain is going to be good. Mine is over 20 years old (I know, ridiculous) and the galvanization is still fine. With Discovery Yachts' excellent reputation, I'm sure that they made good on the chain and have stopped buying from that source.

2:00: What make of chain is that? Looks like 10mm. 2:44: Another method if you have all chain is to tie a length of sized Dyneema as the bitter end and hang an SS breadknife beside it. Two passes and you're done, hopefully remembering the anchor float for retrieval later. 7:42: Looks like half the GTA clubs in 2017, 2019 and (alas, probably) 2020.

that chain isnt wasted just yet. only surface rust. it can be chemically treated to remove the rust and put a type of anodized finish on it to protect it but if you dont do that yourself it may just be cheaper to buy 400lbs of new chain. id say that was the tide of the century for that town.
