What is an Anchor Chain Rope Length?

The anchor chain rope length is the total length of rope needed to secure a boat, taking into account the wind speed and the length of the boat. This ensures the boat remains anchored securely in varying wind conditions.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ ARL = 20 \times 1.5 + 10 = 30 + 10 = 40 \, \text{m} \]

The Anchor Chain Rope Length is 40 meters.
