    Big game fishing.

    Great thanks for that info. Cape Verde is the fore runner atm. Not bad pricing and as you say all inclusive with flights. Works out around £3600 for 3 bodies. I think I've found a charter guy too!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  4. After dropping anchor I have my rope up to the bow and dropped over the bollard and over the bow roller. Then attached to the stbd side midships cleat. When we want to go the rope is cast off at the front and we back off, the bow goes to port and we can see the rope and drive off at 90 degrees to it, before swinging up tide. when the anchor is under the buoy we set up to drift back towards it whilst recovering rope. This system is great for the larger boats, but not recommended for smaller boats to be tide side on to the tide.

  5. Personally the one I use has a shorter warp as what I have had on occasions if there is a swell, the buoy has gone the wrong side of the bow. What I do as I think others do too is go astern before going forward, just gives abit more space between boat and anchor rope/buoy.
