🔍 Key Concepts

• Effect of ship’s motion in a seaway on anchor and cable loads • How anchor flukes and anchor crown can strike the bow when being hove in • Relationship between ship’s heading to the sea and pitching near the bow

💭 Think About

• What happens to the anchor and chain when the bow is pitching heavily and you heave continuously? • How can the vessel’s heading relative to the sea reduce the up‑and‑down motion at the bow? • Which option best keeps the anchor from being violently slapped against the bow plating by the seas?

✅ Before You Answer

• Which choice minimizes snatch loads (sudden jerks) on the cable and windlass? • Which option considers the ship’s heading to the sea before fully housing the anchor? • Eliminate any choice that encourages fast or continuous heaving while the bow is still rising and falling heavily.
