The function of the Anchor And Anchor Chain is to keep the ship relatively stable when berthed, so as to prevent it from drifting with the wind and waves. Anchor Chain (Chain Cable) refers to a special chain that connects the Anchor and the hull and transmits the anchor's grip. As an important accessory of the anchor equipment, when anchoring, the water part of the anchor chain plays a certain buffering role in the external forces such as wind currents that the ship is subjected to. The anchor chain lying flat on the bottom of the water helps the anchor to reliably grasp the bottom.
