🔍 Key Concepts

• Know the basic parts of a stockless anchor: shank, crown, arms, flukes, bill/peaks, and shackle. • The crown is the heavy part at the bottom of the shank where the arms/flukes are attached and where the anchor pivots. • Distinguish between the tip of the fluke and the bottom transverse piece that lies on the seabed when the anchor is at rest.

💭 Think About

• First, mentally trace the shank down to where it meets the rest of the anchor. Which labeled letter is closest to that junction at the very bottom? • Look at which letters are pointing to the tips of the flukes versus which letters are pointing to the base that connects both sides. Which is more likely to be the crown? • Ask yourself: when the anchor is dragging on the bottom before setting, which part of this drawing would actually be in contact with the seabed first?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that the letter you choose is located at the lowest central connection point between shank and arms, not on the pointed or curved parts of the flukes. • Confirm that the option is not pointing to the shackle at the top of the anchor or the shank itself. • Double-check that your chosen letter is on the heavy piece that would rest on the bottom when the anchor is lying flat.
