Or is it a small set of brains  Knowing you , you probably had/have a tracker/simcard onboard to check the position of the boat on the internet . All very well , but then you also need someone to call to in case something is wrong. Regards EDIT : forget to check the boat-vitals link , now I see , you do have a tracker .

And your insurance was happy for that amount of time on anchor unattended?

And your insurance was happy for that amount of time on anchor unattended? Honestly - I haven’t checked. All is well when it ends well. |

btw: a close friend of mine left his boat with "Professional" gardiennage for the Medicain and after he sent me to check the boat this is what I found - dinghy left inflated on deck, anchor locker open, fenders out and no snubber ( who know what else I can find in close inspection - not with the drone) - lucky for him the wind did not get to the expected 70+kts and his boat survived, but me personally - I feel a lots safer with boat prepared by myslf and garded by my Boat-Vitals anchor alarm/chart device then leave it to the "Pro's" I'm also curious what the insurance will think for a boat left like that in 70+kts wind.  |

no issues at all 4 fenders jumped on the deck from the strong wind has been 50+ for couple of days and when changed from the south to north - the anchor has reset properly - with 27 meters drag.
