🔍 Key Concepts

• Working tension vs. breaking strength in mooring lines • Effect of high line tension on safety margins • Relationship between anchor holding power and mooring line load

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to the safety margin when you operate closer to the maximum strength of the mooring line. • Consider whether higher working tension makes anchors more or less likely to drag. • Ask yourself which option talks about a margin or safety buffer rather than an external load or depth condition.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice directly involves a margin or safety buffer between normal use and failure. • Check which options talk about loads that might actually increase if line tensions are high, rather than decrease. • Verify that the correct choice is focused on line capacity and safety margins, not on water depth or vessel draft.
