🔍 Key Concepts

• Standard anchoring terminology used on deck when handling anchors • Difference between moving the ship using the anchor versus raising the anchor off the seabed • Common phrases you hear on the bridge or forecastle when preparing to get underway from anchor

💭 Think About

• Think about what word or phrase you usually hear when a vessel is getting ready to leave an anchorage and the anchor is being brought up from the bottom. • Consider which options describe changing the anchor’s position along the bottom versus actually lifting it clear of the seabed. • Ask yourself: which term would the officer or bosun use to report that the anchor is no longer on the bottom and is coming up to the hawse pipe?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term specifically means raising the anchor vertically off the bottom, not dragging it along the seabed. • Eliminate any option that suggests moving the anchor sideways or altering its position without fully recovering it. • Confirm which term you’ve seen in Nautical/Seamanship manuals or heard in standard bridge/anchor reports like "Anchor is ____" when getting underway.
