Anchoring; Heaving Up Anchor - Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 40 User Manual

ANCHORING

As a general rule, the chain should be paid out over at least three times the depth of water.
Before anchoring, check the depth of water, current power and nature of the sea bed.
ANCHORING:
- Luff the boat through without way on her,
- Pay out and keep the chain under control with the windlass brake,
When anchored:
- Release the chain or cable from the cable-lifter,
- Secure the chain on the windlass cleat.

HEAVING UP ANCHOR:

- Lock the windlass snubber,
- Ensure that the chain is properly seated in the cable lifter,
- Heave in slowly with the engine. Don't use the windlass to hoist the boat,
- Heave the anchor up to the pipe,
- Check the anchor for position on the bow bracket for changing berth, or secure
it into the chain locker,
- With an electrical windlass, switch the power off immediately when the chain is
fast.
Adjust the chain under the windlass sheave and keep your hand away!
