Catamaran Sailing Techniques – Anchoring and Picking Up a Mooring

Catamarans have many advantages over monohulls when it comes to sitting at anchor or on a mooring. In particular, their shallower draft means that you can get closer to shore and often in less crowded areas. But there are also tips and tricks to carrying out the exercise aboard a boat that has more windage than a monohull and rides to the anchor in a different way. Nigel Irens explains and demonstrates the techniques. For more information on The Moorings, visit http://www.moorings.com. The Moorings, the world's premier yacht charter company, has delivered unmatched quality, service and attention to detail since 1969. Top of the line sail-it-yourself bareboat yachts, all-inclusive luxury crewed yachts with captain and chef, and innovative power yacht charters are available throughout the world.

So what about picking up that mooring? All the video showed was someone commenting on how they were struggling to control the catamaran. Not a single helpful, useful point about actually picking up or security the mooring.

A waste of time and a poor reflection of Yachting World. I can't imagine Moorings were too pleased wasting their money with these videos either.
