cyberholz Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 That's how Thai boats anchor all the time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Maybe where you are, but not here. That's why there are mooringlines available, and if none available they have to moor next to another boat or go elsewhere. And if still anchoring on the corals, they will be reported.
