She's known as U77. I saw her loaded aboard in Auckland. She has very nice lines, but I suspect there are issues since Mr. Hart moved on from this...

That sounds plausible. Tragic in any event.
That's very sad. How does one become tangled in an anchor chain?
Slip of the fingers, sorry. I don't know how it happened, but meant to say 206. It's Long Ranger.
This thread has gone way off topic, but I feel the need to comment. Perhaps another thread would be in order for this discussion. I disagree with...
Thanks, Judy. I often say the same thing about my Dad. He really groomed me for this career, without actually trying to, from an early age. I'll...

Using the stopper is a good practice to take the strain off the windlass. As Pascal says, a bridle (we call is a snubber) with a chain hook will...
