5 Seminar Elements Anchor Types What size anchor Anchor Rode Anchor Scope Anchoring Tips and Tricks 5
6 Types of Anchors Burying anchors Plough Claw Spade Large Area Pivoting Fluke (LAPF) Hooking anchors Fisherman Northill 6
7 Plow Anchor - CQR Proven old design Best in firm sand, thick mud, rock, coral, weeds Hinged shank Trip line eye Awkward to stow 7
8 Plow Anchor - Delta Fixed shank Large area flanks Trip line eye Modern metals 8
9 Claw Anchor Bruce, Lewmar One piece construction Best in sand, rock, weed, coral Good resetting characteristics Holding power 9
10 Burying Anchor - Spade Sharp plough with concave blade and weighted tip Proven performance Can be dismantled for stowing 10
11 LAPF Anchors Commonly found Sand or soft mud Holding power Excellent when dug in More susceptible to tripping under changing conditions Excellent when pull direction doesn t change Easy to stow 11
12 LAPF Anchors Danforth Three types Standard Hi-Tensile Deepset II 12
13 LAPF Anchor - Fortress High tensile aluminum Dismantles for stowing Adjustable shank angle High holding power to weight ratio 13
14 Hooking Anchor - Fisherman a.k.a. Traditional Good in weeds and rocks Heavier Can be dismantled for stowage Not common today 14

19 What Size Anchor? Use charts/tables found in many different books Match an anchor to your boat Remember to consider current load 19
20 Typical Anchor Size Table Boat Length (feet) CQR 15 lb 25 lb 35 lb 45 lb 60 lb Delta 9 lb 14 lb 22 lb 35 lb 44 lb Bruce 11 lb 16 lb 22 lb 33 lb 44 lb 66 lb Danforth HT 5 lb 12 lb 20 lb 35 lb 60 lb Fortress 4 lb 7 lb 10 lb 5 lb 21 lb 32 lb 47 lb For medium displacement boats, and 30 kts of wind 20
21 Calculate Anchor Size Use formulae for rode tension and anchor holding power In addition to calculating anchor size by using a table, there are formulas that allow more accuracy. These will be taught at the end of the seminar for those who want to use them. 21
22 Summary of Anchor Matching Assume worse case conditions likely to be encountered Estimate maximum horizontal pull Select optimum anchor type(s) Calculate anchor weights Select anchor within range 22
23 Seminar Elements Anchor Types What size anchor Anchor Rode Anchor Scope Anchoring Tips and Tricks 23
24 Anchor Rode Components Typical rode Height 5 ft above surface Line to sentinel Scope = (100+20)/(5+15) = 6 or 6:1 Sentinel 100 ft nylon line Depth 15ft 20 ft chain 24
25 Anchor Rode Design Goals Maintain zero lead angle Provide elasticity to absorb shock loads in swells Keep weight to a minimum Keep chafe to a minimum 25

32 Seminar Elements Anchor Types What size anchor Anchor Rode Anchor Scope Anchoring Tips and Tricks 32
33 Scope Ratio of rode length to depth of water + height of bow roller above water Needs to be just sufficient to maintain 0 lead angle under worst conditions forecast 0 lead angle not achieved with all line Non-zero lead angle reduces holding power 33
34 Rode Lead Angle Critical Angles of a Set Anchor 34
35 Reduction of Holding Power with Rode Lead Angle 35
36 0 Lead Angle with all Chain Rode Chain forms a catenary Chain length can be calculated for 0 lead angle Need to estimate horizontal pull 36
37 Catenary - Line Natural catenary provides cushion Straightens under wind and wave conditions Adapted from: Powerboat Handling Illustrated 37

39 Holding Power with Chain 39
40 0 Lead Angle for a Chain Nylon Rode Chain forms a catenary Nylon line (light in weight) is nearly a straight line Assume fixed length of chain (e.g.60 ft) Line length can be calculated for 0 lead angle if horizontal pull is known 40
41 Chain Line Combination Rode Height above Bottom (ft) Horizontal Pull = 50 lbs 14 ft Line Water Surface Horizontal Pull = 200 lbs Distance from Anchor (ft) 102 ft Line 60 feet BBB chain 41

73 Anchor Rode Tension Horizontal force on anchor rode F h = 0.18 x V 2 x W 2/3 Sail boat F h = 0.21 x V 2 x W 2/3 Power boat Where F h = horizontal force on anchor rode V = wind speed in knots W = displacement of boat in long tons* *Definition: One long ton = 2240 pounds Hint use logarithm or y x function on calculator 73
74 Rode Tension Examples 35 ft Sailboat Displacement W = 16,000lbs or 7.1 long tons W 2/3 = 7.1 2/3 = 3.7 Maximum wind speed V = 40 knots F h = 0.18 x V 2 x W 2/3 Sail boat F h = 0.18 x 40 x 40 x 3.7 = 1065 lbs 74
75 Rode Tension Examples 38 ft Trawler Displacement W = 36,000 lbs or 16.1 long tons W 2/3 = /3 = 6.4 Maximum wind speed V = 40 knots F h = 0.21 x V 2 x W 2/3 Power boat F h = 0.21 x 40 x 40 x 6.4 = 2150 lbs 75

80 Anchor Holding Power Anchor holding power: F h = 2.3 x C s x K a x w 2/3 lbs Where: Cs = bottom coefficient Ka = Anchor coefficient w = weight of anchor Hint use logarithm or y x function on calculator 80
81 Anchor Holding Power Selecting Anchor to match need: w 2/3 = (F h 2.3 K s C s ) or w = (F h 2.3 K s C s ) 3/2 Where: Cs = bottom coefficient Ka = Anchor coefficient w = weight of anchor Hint use logarithm or y x function on calculator 81
