Transactions
Safe and effective anchoring remains a fundamental aspect of small-vessel operation, with anchor cable loads strongly influenced by environmental conditions and anchoring configuration. Improved understanding of the relationship between scope ratio, water depth, and wind loading is supporting more informed anchoring practices, helping vessel operators optimise holding performance, reduce anchor loads, and enhance safety during stationary operations.
