Mooring chain snaps in heavy seas

19/8/2012

Unusually heavy seas for August pushed into the harbour putting a strain on the main mooring chains causing the one at the stern of "Blue Water"  to snap. Whilst the waves rolled in and the rain thrashed down, the Seaward 23 and the yacht Escape III were left shackled only to the back of Blue Water and rode precariously close to each other on the swell.

 Fortunately, little damage was caused to any of the boats and  after the tide retreated we were able to run ropes across to pull the boats back  into position on the evening tide and replace the chain.

That was such a beautiful harbor. I have never been there before. It’s such a crazy thought. We cannot see all the beautiful places in the world even if we travel our whole lives. I’am happy to know that Seaward 23 and the yacht Escape III escaped an accident.
