genie, an Admiralty court doesn't adjudicate criminal cases.

btw, admiralty courts would be absolutely certain to understand the all chain
issue, for every last merchant marine out there understands it, and understands
it well.

genie, it took you decades to get an aircraft mechanic's license (easily gotten
by 18 year old boys). why do you think you might not take many, many more
decades to learn which of a boat the pointy end is?

genie, you anchor that way you will most certainly drag anchor on all chain.

*you* do that and hurt someone ***I*** will personally make absolute certain
you are charged with criminal activity. bet on it, just as you can bet on
being charged for driving drunk and injurying someone.


Please do. I'd love to see how your position and logic are dealt with
in an Admiralty Court. Why not cite some cases where all chain rode
was found to be dangerous.

Yep. Roll over and play dead.

do you also drive a boat drunk, genie? and you justify it how?


This is your idea of logical progression of thought and logic? No
wonder your Physics is so bizarre.

I repeat.
Here is what an anchor manufacturer says.... of course, what do they
know when faced with the superior intellect of Jaxian omniscience....

In rough weather, minimum recommended scope is 4 for an all-chain
rode, 7 for a combination chain/rope rode, and 10 for an all rope
rode. It is recommended that zinc coated Grade 30 or zinc coated Proof
Coil chain be used with load rated high quality zinc coated shackles
to US Federal specification RR-C-271d Type IV or equivalent. These
shackles exceed the strength of the chain while having pin diameters
small enough to pass through the extremity links of the chain. Where a
larger lower quality shackle of similar strength is used as a
substitute, a riveted joining link one size larger than the chain is
recommended for connection of the shackle to the chain.

What empirical evidence do you have to prove the manufacturer wrong?

Yep, thought so, again. Roll over and play dead.

Nice Doggy.....
