Scope is defined as the 10000 wakes wakeboard camp ratio of water depth (plus freeboard) to anchor line paid out. Most anchoring texts and anchor manufacturers agree that a scope of 7:1 achieves the anchor’s designed 10000 wakes wakeboard camp holding power, and more scope is better than less. In theory, 7:1 scope is 10000 wakes wakeboard camp great, but at a crowded anchorage most cruisers scoff at the idea of 10000 wakes wakeboard camp paying out more than 3:1 or 4:1—there just isn’t that much space for boats to swing. When an anchor is securely set you can consider shortening 10000 wakes wakeboard camp scope in a crowded anchorage. |

Once an anchor has been set, it 10000 wakes wakeboard camp will almost always hold the same amount of tension that was used to set it, even if the scope is reduced. This means that you can pay out long scope, pull hard on the anchor rode using the engine, and then shorten scope to reduce swinging room. However, if your boat swings and the anchor has to reset 10000 wakes wakeboard camp itself, it will have to do so at a reduced scope. This is known as Anchoring Russian Roulette. |
