HOISTING ANCHOR
1.
The propulsion engines should be running and warmed up as described in the Propulsion Engine Startup procedure in
this work package.
2.
Start the vessel moving slowly toward the anchor to take strain off the line.
3.
As the vessel moves closer to the anchor, take in the anchor line.
4.
When the anchor line is vertical, stop the vessel and hoist the anchor aboard.
5.
Disassemble the ground tackle and stow the anchor, anchor chain, and line as directed by the coxswain.

of personnel.
