Q

Which term describes the opening in the deck that leads the anchor cable outside the hull?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Parts of the anchor handling system on deck • Difference between pipes used for mooring/anchor chain versus pipes used for draining or discharging • Where the anchor chain actually passes through the hull and out to the bow

💭 Think About

• Which of these terms is specifically associated with the anchor cable or chain leading out through the bow? • Which terms are more likely related to drainage or ballast systems rather than anchoring gear? • Think about what the opening at the bow, where the anchor chain passes, is commonly called on a ship’s foredeck.

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the term to the function: anchor chain route to outside, not water spill or cargo flow • Visualize the bow area: what is the name of the opening where the anchor shank and chain run? • Eliminate any terms you’ve seen used with ballast, cargo discharge, or scuppers, since those are not for anchor chain.
