How not to anchor on a river!
Our first pearl comes from yours truly.
Tried to anchor my boat one time and threw the anchor out into the river. We were in current and the anchor grabbed instantly. Unfortunately the rope was not tied off to the boat. Also the rope was wrapped around my left leg. Well once the anchor grabbed I was jerked leg first into the river. Not funny at the time but very funny now.
PEARL #1
If you ever decide to anchor a jet boat on a river in the current.
1. Make sure that the rope is tied off to the boat.
2. Make sure that rope is free of all your appendages.
