Abstract

Following the experiments on riding at single anchor which was reported in Part 1. we carried out some experiments on mooring and riding at single anchor with drag anchor. The results of experiments have shown us that the following methods are recommendable to ride her safely in strong wind even when ship is light loaded and trimmed by the stern. 1. If moored with both anchor cables at an angle of about 60°or more, ship's yawing is chekd entirely. 2. If at single anshor, using a drag anchor is effective to minimise ship's yawing so far as the wind is not so strong, that is under 30m/sec. In order to check the yawing, the shorter the scope of drag anchor chain is, the better effect can be attained so long as the anchor drags the bottom.
