Why Lowering a Ship’s Anchor Requires Precision #shorts

Lowering a ship's anchor isn't just some random job. There are technical procedures that need to be followed for safety. When you release the anchor chain guard, the metal chain will slide down with the weight of the anchor at high speed. The large kinetic energy can be very dangerous. So, the crew needs to stay away from the chain area before the descent starts. It's obviously key to make sure everything's safe and coordinated when lowering the anchor into the sea.
