From the rear cover
"Staying Put" is the kind of book that lives on your cabin bookshelf, ever more dog-eared from repeated use. This is a basic treatise on one of seamanship's basic arts - that of anchoring, the skill that causes skippers of all levels of experience more worry than any other.
The author approaches anchoring as an art, not as an arcane science, replacing common sense with sound judgement and careful observation. From the selection of ground tackle to basic anchoring techniques, from what to do when you drag to mooring in Mediterranean harbors - everything is here. This is a book you read, digest, and then refer to again and again as you gain practical experience for yourself. "Staying Put" will appeal not only to expert skippers but to beginners, sailing school and instructors, and charter companies - to sailors and powerboaters alike - all those who practice the art of anchoring and worry about, well...staying put!
