As a relatively inexperienced sailor, I used to think that it was irresponsible to leave your boat unattended at anchor. However, I see people doing it all the time here on LI Sound.
So now I''ve started doing it a little, but I always feel anxious and a little guilty. We now dinghy ashore from anchorages and leave the boat alone for short periods.
We were in Sag Harbor a couple of weekends ago and anchored near a 60-foot catamaran that was on a hook. No human was seen near this half-million dollar boat for two days!
Am I being a spaz over nothing? Does everyone else leave their boat unattended at anchor?
