RE: Sandspollen - 101 boats

in #sailing7 years ago

Is the water 40 meters deep there?
I remember these seagulls from Norway. The biggest I ever seen and pretty friendly with people to get some food.
Luckily you haven't put your fingers on all of the pictures taken and I can say that the ones who got out "clean" are great. With that clear water I understand you very well for wishing to sleep there. My only sleep experience on a boat was with COLORLINE but it was a bit noisy and can't say that it was something great.
If I had a boat there I would probably spend a lot of nights on it and I would probably do some fishing also.
Did you ever fished there?

Sort:  

Did you ever fished there?

No, not in this bay, I've done very little fishing since I moved from the Northern Norway. I'm a bit impatient, if I don't get fish within reasonable time, I give up - and I'm no expert on fishing.

We've been picking mushrooms here. Not exactly in the sea, of course, but on land :-)

Is the water 40 meters deep there?

Some 10-12 metres deep. It's recommended to use rode length at least 3x the depth, preferably more like 5x. The anchor will stay where it's dropped when the drag is almost horizontal, and will slip when the drag is almost vertical.
