I am now getting used to hauling up the anchor by hand. It makes for a very good morning work out. Hauling the chain is not too bad until you get immediately above the anchor when you are lifting about 50kg and trying to get the anchor to unstick from the bottom.

Leaving Panaya. Another very flat windless day.

I managed to back in to the town quay here but had to let all 55 mts of chain out as it is quite deep. I may stay for a day or two eating lots of steak and spinach to build up my strength to retrieve it.
