STUCK ANCHOR | Sidste torsdag stod vi tidligt op for at sejle fra Fakarava til naboøen Kauehi. Da vi skulle have ankeret op sad det dog fuldstændig fast til trods for at vi altid flyder kæden med perlebøjer. Så var der ikke så meget andet for end at hoppe i dykkerudstyret og ned under overfladen for at se nærmere på problemet. Det viste sig at ankerkæden ikke bare havde snoet sig om flere store døde koralsten, men at ankeret oveni havde sat sig fast inden i en stor sten. Da jeg først så det tænkte jeg at den får jeg aldrig fri. Jeg bad en stille bøn, smed svømmefødderne og så var det ellers igang med først at trække ankeret fri, så ville kæden fri og bære ankeret ud på sandbund. Det var seriøs undervands crossfit og jeg tør godt sige at luften blev brugt en anelse hurtigere end jeg plejer. Men det lykkedes og med en times forsinkelse kunne vi sætte efter @sailing_kujira Nogle gange er jeg ekstra glad for at vi har dykkerudstyr ombord.nn| ENG |nLast Thursday we got up early to sail from Fakarava to the neighboring island of Kauehi. When we were supposed to get the anchor up, it was completely stuck, despite the fact that we always float the chain with pearl buoys. So there was nothing else to do but jump into the diving equipment and go below the surface to take a closer look at the problem. It turned out that the anchorchain had not only wrapped itself around several large dead coral stones, but that the anchor had also gotten stuck inside a large stone. When I first saw it, I thought I would never get it free. I said a silent prayer, threw away my flippers and then it was off to first pull the anchor free, then pull the chain free and then carry the anchor out onto the sandy bottom. It was serious underwater crossfit from the morning and I dare say that the air was used up a little faster than usual. But we managed and with an hour delay we were able to set off after @sailing_kujira Sometimes I´m extra glad we have diving equipment on board.
