An anchor or anchor is a nautical instrument that allows a ship to fix its position in the sea without having to worry about the current, opposing the force of the tide. The anchor anchor usually consists of two or more hooks that are responsible that it clings to the seabed, preventing the boat from being dragged adrift. Small boats have only one, which is attached to the boat by means of a rope or chain, depending on the length and current regulations. Larger boats usually have three, one in the stern and two in the bow, hooked by chains. The heaviest anchors can reach three tons. In oil tankers of one hundred thousand tons, anchors weigh thirteen to fifteen tons, and in larger ones more than twenty tons.
