How long should your anchor line be?
The length of anchor line is called "Scope" by mariners. The scope of your anchor line should be 5 to 7 times the depth of water that you're anchored in. It should never be less than 3 times the depth. In other words if you usually anchor where the water is 20 feet deep you should have a MINIMUM of 100 feet of line.

From which direction must a white light be visible?
There have been a number of questions about boating lights here recently, so I'm assuming this is another.The answer to this one is complicated, and depends on:1. If the boat is a sailboat or a powerboat (sailboats which also have motors are considered powerboats if the motor is in use).2. If the boat is in motion or at anchor.3. The size of the boat.You should really be a lot more specific with the question if you want a definitive answer; specifically you should say whether it's a sailboat or a powerboat, if it's under sail/power or at anchor, and how long the keel is.
A scuba diver has a taut rope connecting the dive boat to an anchor on the ocean floor The rope is 110 feet long The water is 55 feet deep To the nearest tenth of a foot. how far is the anchor from?
Assume the question is, How far is the anchor from a point on the sea bed vertically below the boat? The taut rope is effectively the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle. The depth of water provides the second side and the answer is the third side (L). By Pythagoras then 1102 = 552 + L2 : L2 = 1102 - 552 = 12100 - 3025 = 9075 If L2 = 9075 then L = √9075 = 95.3 ft The distance of the anchor from a point on the sea bed vertically below the boat is 95.3 ft
