🔍 Key Concepts

• Sea anchor purpose and how it is normally rigged • Where a tripping line is attached on a sea anchor • What action you want to perform quickly and easily with that extra line

💭 Think About

• Think about which part of the sea anchor the tripping line would connect to and what pulling that line would actually do • Ask yourself: is the tripping line meant to control the boat’s motion, or to control the sea anchor itself? • Consider what might be difficult about dealing with a deployed sea anchor, and how an extra line could make that task easier

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify whether a tripping line’s main function is before deployment or after the sea anchor has been in use • Decide if a tripping line is used to change the drag/holding power or to change the position/orientation of the sea anchor • Picture the practical seamanship step: what do you most need help with when you’re done using the sea anchor?
