5.11.4 Weighing the anchor

To weigh the anchor, perform the same operations previously described above, in reverse order. In windy or strong current conditions, start the engines and keep the bow toward the anchor position to avoid the breakage of the chock.

Once the anchor is on board, fasten the chain stopper before resuming navigation.

CAUTION

Prior to departing, check that the chain stopper is properly fastened.
