Questions & Answers
Question : How to tie my anchor line to the right length?
I have a raft. On the front of it is an anchor ring. To that I have attached my 75' anchor line then to a 4 foot anchor chain then to my anchor. That setup is for deeper water. But what knot do I use to shorten the line for shallower water? I don't have a "cleat" on the boat, just an anchor ring. I would assume that entails tying a secondary knot at a shorter distance on the line to the ring on the raft.
Answer:
i would start by splicing the end of your rope onto the anchor ring so if any of your knots come undone you will not loose your anchor. If you cannot splice tie a bowline (i heard it refered to as a Bowman's knot the other day on American tv show) and leave enough tail(6 inches or about 150mm) to feed through the main part of your rope. eg after tying the knot open one of the strands of your rope, (before the knot) and feed your tail through it, repeat about 40 mm or 1" down the rope. This way your knot will never come undone. As for the knot to shorten rope probably a round turn with two half hitches, simple knot that will not pull tight. You should find how to do the knot on the web fairly easily, very common knot for tying boat up. All the best.

Question : How do you anchor a tractor to a flatbed?
How do you anchor a tractor or skid steer to a flatbed trailer? Using those ratchet straps, or chains.
Answer:
Tractors (and other things with wheels) need to be secured VERY well. I recommend the use of chains and binders instead of straps for loads of over 2,000 pounds. And make sure the chains are of sufficient strength for the weight of the tractor being carried. And the binders must be TIGHT. Tires bounce, and this results in chains getting tighter and loser as the tires flex under road conditions. A lose chain can result in a chain breaking. Loads should be "stretched" from front to back. Depending on the size and weight of the tractor, it must have at least 2 chains (one in front, and one in back) pulling against each other. Larger tractors should have one chain for each tire. Here are a few related web sites: http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/rules-regulations/truck/vehicle/cs-policy.htm http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/safety-security/safety-initiatives/cargo/cs-manual.htm http://www.lowestpricetrafficschool.com/handbooks/cdl/en/3/3 http://www.nysdmv.com/broch/cdl/cdl10sec03.pdf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btRWr3OO-hs&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KcedCr-Ge8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANVEtk66Ohc&feature=related Good Luck=========

Question : What does attaching an anchor and chain to your heavy bag do to your workout? Does it give u a harder workout?
What does attaching an anchor and chain to your heavy bag do to your workout? Does it give u a harder workout?
Answer:
The D ring on the bottom of the bag, allows the use of the weighted sand base and bungee to keep the bag from swinging and more stationary. Some like to work the bag being in close and working the body, therefore the wight, while others WANT it to swing around so they can sidestep it and catch it as it goes by again and again. Two different styles for two different types of opponents.

Question : I have a 29ft displacement launch. What diameter of anchor chain do I need. And what diameter of anchor rope?
I have a 29ft displacement launch. What diameter of anchor chain do I need. And what diameter of anchor rope?
Answer:
The anchor line.All of the gear, taken collectively, that lies between a boat and it's anchor is called the rode -- whether it be synthetic fiber, chain or a combination of the two.Twisted nylon.Nylon, in three-strand twist or double-braid form, is now by far the most widely used material for anchor lines.For anchoring, perhaps nylon's greatest asset is it's elasticity; nylon stretches a third or more under load. It's working elasticity is 15 to 25 percent, which is of particular value when a boat surges at anchor in steep seas. In such conditions there is a heavy shock load on fittings and ground tackle -- unless provision is made to absorb it gradually. Nylon's elasticity does exactly that. Some boaters unwittingly lose part or most of the advantages inherent in nylon by using too large a line. Within the limits of safe working loads, the smaller the diameter the better the elasticity for given conditions. A practical limit is reached when small diameters (though rated high enough for breaking strength) are not convenient to handle. Some experienced boaters use nylon as light as 3/8-inch diameter on working anchors of 30- to 40-foot craft. ...nylon line is highly resistant to rot, decay and mildew, but can be damaged by rust from iron fittings or chain.Chain.The three kinds of chain most used as anchor rode are "BBB", "Proof Coil" and "High Test." Chain is designated by diameter of the material in the link, but the links of the various types differ slightly in length. It is necessary to match the chain to the wildcat (a pulley designed for use with chain) of the anchor windlass; the differences in link length are slight, but enough to cause trouble if there is a mismatch.BBB is marginally stronger than Proof Coil; High Test is significantly stronger than either. The selection of specfic chain type and size for your boat involves several factors, the first of which is adequate strength. A safe standard to use is a working load figured from the size of the boat and the conditions to be encountered -- at 20 percent of the chain's breaking strength when new. But you must consider weight. The chain must be heavy enough to provide a proper sag to cushion shock loads, but the length required for normal anchoring depths must not be so heavy, when stored on board, that it affects the boat's handling characteristics or even it's safety.Nylon-and-chain.Today the ideal rode is a combination of nylon line and a short length of chain -- 6 to 8 feet or longer is desirable -- between the line and the anchor.One effect of chain in this combination rode is to lower the angle of pull, because chain tends to lie on the bottom. Of equal or even greater significance is the fact that today's lightweight anchors often bury completely, taking part of the rode with them...Chain used in this way may vary from 1/4-inch diameter for 20-footers up to 7/16-inch for 50-footers.Chain should be galvanized to protect against rust..........................................................................................For a 29 ft. boat: Rode Length -- 200 ft.Rode Size ----- 7/16 inchesChain Size* --- 5/16 inchesStorm Anchors model no.Danforth 22-SFortress FX-11Plow (lbs.) 25Bruce (lbs.) 16.5Delta (lbs.) 22* Recommended chain length: 1/2 foot of chain for each foot of boat length.

Question : How bout a tatoo of a different kind of anchor on each calf with chain leading up legs, splicing to rope, th?
then both going up the back making a square know out of eachother, down each arm underneath where one makes a monkeyfist and the other an eye splic and the rope around the wrist. Maybe some colorful fish swimming around the anchors.... I have no tatoos and this would be a long work in progress.
Answer:
wow. that is a huge tattoo commitment and if you are willing to make that commitment then congratulations to you!! since you don't have any tattoos yet, let me give you this advice.research artists before you go to someone. don't just walk into any local tattoo shop and get someone to start this for you. look at as many portfolios as you can get your hands on. find a reputable artist that does wonderful original work. preferably someone that specializes in traditional style tattoos with maybe a bit of a new skool touch. if you live anywhere near texas, my tattoo artist is phenomenal. good luck!!

Question : How is the downward force of a boat's anchor chain affected by its weight and length?
If I reduce the weight of my anchor chain, but increase the length of chain that rests on the seabed, can I create the same downward force needed to prevent the anchor being pulled up?
Answer:
Played out anchor chain on the ocean bed does nothing but give the boat/ship slack to float about a greater area on the surface. The dragging chain on the bed hinders that surface trek in the wind and currents so the movement about under the weather is slower than it would otherwise be.The weight of the anchor/chain combination, your downward force, is a net weight. The anchor weight W = Mg and the chain weight w = rho LA; where rho is the chain's density, L is its length dangling in the water, and A is its cross sectional area. Total weight in the water, but not lying on the bed, is W + w.That weight is offset by the buoyancy of the anchor/chain combination. Let Rho = the water density, V = the anchor volume, and v = LA be the chain volume dangling in the water. Buoyancy is then B = Rho(V + LA) whenever the anchor and chain are not lying on the bed or b = RhoLA when the anchor is on the bed and L is the length of dangling chain.The net force on the dangling anchor and chain is F = W - B = (Mg + rhoLA) - Rho(V + LA) = (W - RhoV) + LA(rho - Rho). As you can plainly see, there is more downward force when the weight of the anchor W is greater. Same for the dangling chain of length L, when its weight is greater, there is more net downward force. As w = rhoLA, this means more dangling chain would yield more downward net force.But, and this is a big BUT, the downward force occurs only with the anchor and chain when they are dangling off the bed. Once they reach the bed, the equal but opposite force of the bed acting on the weights of the chain and anchor neutralize and the net weight is zero.Anchors keep ships and boats from moving mainly by digging into the bed; thereby attaching the boats and ships to the lake/ocean floor. That's why many, if not most, anchors have flukes with points...to anchor (thus the term) the boat to the ocean/lake bottom.

Question : Calculus Question: How do I find the work done by raising an anchor up?
An anchor weighing 100 lb in water is attached to a chain weighing 5 lb/ft in water. Find the work done to haul the anchor and chain to the surface of the water from a depth of 25 ft.
Answer:
Let x be the length of the chain that has been pulled in, and let W be the combined weight of the anchor and chain overboard.W = 100 + 5(25 - x)W = 225 - 5xNow integrate that expression with respect to x from 0 to 25. The result will be the work in foot-pounds.
