1st Entry, 0841 Hours: Time to weigh anchor! This is one of the most complex tasks we perform on the Half Moon, requiring all hands working together in three different stations. We'll look at different positions over the course of the next few days. For now, several members of the senior crew join Björn, Nadia, Purevsuren, and Nienke on the capstan. As they walk the capstan, they reel in the anchor rode (line). Mouse over (or click on) the image above to see them in action!
