This new book by Rudy and Jill Sechez is called, Anchoring: A Ground Tackler’s Apprentice. Sub-titled “Basics and Beyond,” the text does indeed deliver both the simple stuff and a level of detail only an engineer would appreciate.
Topics addressed include: How to throw a rope, whether chain is necessary, the paradox of rope stretch, to swivel or not to swivel, how to use tandem anchors, preventing chafe, bridles, anchors for soft bottoms, working loads, anchor comparisons, etiquette in tight spaces, kedging, and much more—including tables, charts and illustrations.
Anyone who wants to dig in deep on the topic should appreciate this new volume. 218 pages, soft cover. $24.95
