An anchor line refers to the heavy rope or chain used to secure a ship's anchor to the seabed. It's often a combination of both chain and cable for strength and flexibility. The anchor line allows the ship to stay in place when parked or waiting in open water.
- Thicker lines are stronger but may be heavier and more difficult to handle
- The strength of an anchor line is crucial, as it needs to withstand the forces exerted by wind, waves, and currents
- The strength is usually specified in terms of tensile strength or working load limits
