Using the Anka Yanka

Back ] Up ] Next ]

Stage 3

The Buoy attached to the Anka Yanka will slide along the anchor rope and submerge temporarily as it is forced under the water by the motion of the boat and tide as well as the holding force of the anchor and chain on the seabed. Once the buoyancy of the Buoy exceeds the anchoring force and the combined weight of the anchor and chain it rises to the sea surface and the anchor rope will rise to the surface and will appear to increase in length as the buoy is forced towards the anchor itself. Keep motoring forwards until the Buoy is planing along the surface of the water.
