In illustration D038DG below, what part of the anchor is indicated by the letter "H"?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Look at where letter "H" is pointing in relation to the shank (vertical bar) and the flukes (broad, pointed plates that dig into the bottom). • Recall that the crown is the lower part of the anchor where the shank and arms/flukes are joined, and the tripping palm is a projection that helps break the anchor out when heaving in. • Think about how a stockless anchor lies on the bottom and which parts actually penetrate the seabed versus which parts act more like a hinge or pivot.

💭 Think About

• Is "H" indicating a flat digging surface or edge, or is it pointing to a solid connecting/hinge area at the very bottom of the anchor? • When the anchor is being hoisted and you want it to tip and break free, which specific bottom projection would help rotate the anchor off the bottom? • Compare the location of "H" with the obvious vertical shank and the wide flukes—does "H" look like either of those, or does it appear to be a base/hinge or a special lug underneath?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm whether "H" is on the vertical member (that would suggest the shank) or on a horizontal/low base piece near where the arms join (suggesting the crown or related part). • Check if "H" is marking the broad, flat digging plate (which would indicate a fluke) or a small projection/lug under the crown (which would suggest the tripping palm). • Visualize the anchor lying on the seabed and identify which part at "H" would most logically serve its labeled function based on its shape and position.
