Assumption that an anchor is some sort of immovable object isn't very
bright. genie, who taught you that anchors are supposed to move? |

yielding a 40,000# pull on a
20,000# boat.... obviously flawed, because no standard rode (chain or line) or anchor is going to hold.... yup, but the nylon places the load of considerable time and distance. therefore the shock load is several orders of magnitude lower. let alone standard deck hardware and attachments. |

If
this scenario were anywhere near accurate, anchoring, per se, would be operationally impossible you, perhaps, have noticed that all the boats which drag -- due to an Act of God -- in a storm are on all chain, or mostly chain with a few feet of nylon? Of course you haven't. you have never seen a storm, except hidden in the back of the closet in your bedroom at home. |

I suggest that Jax post his equations
D = 16 T^2 S = T * A A (one G) = 32 ft/sec^2 you can find these equations in a junior high school science class for advanced students. |

mod vador, have you ever contributed anything at all to this ng or any other in
any way related to sailing? refresh out memories, if you would. mode (modervador) Date: 9/28/2004 12:25 AM Eastern Daylight Time Message-id: (JAXAshby) wrote in message ...

You have already substituted the accelleration constant g into d=16t^2 and multiples of g were apparently not dealt with properly. Use d=(1/2)at^2 and you might get better results. %mod% |

As I have previously
posted... because *you* have posted something -- anything -- proves nothing at all. what a self-centered turd you are for even suggesting such. |

I see no evidence that any ground tackle found on any boat other that
something bordering a ship will support anything remotely close to 40,000# therefore, genei clown, if *you* anchor on all chain and drag down on someone injuring them you deserve to go to jail. you need stretch, yo-yo. don't use all chain. unless of course you like you sex with a 300 pound drug dealer locked in a 8' x 10' cell. |

nobody has posted any documented evidence of deck hardware being
damaged solely by using an all chain rode, they most certainly have. not here among the junior high school set, but it has be documented far and wide, and with specific pictures. this ain't rocket science, little boy. just ordinary knowlege for those with an upper two digit or low three digit IQ. |
