8 blasts from a ship under COLREGS means I have palsey and cannot get my finger off the button
A ship would not be 'anchored' at a pier in the nautical sense of anchoring. It would be 'tied' with hawsers (large ropes) to cleats on the pier.
It is a "bollard." The hawser (rope) is attached to the bollard to anchor a ship in position at a pier or wharf.

Ulysses was tied to the mast of his ship by his men.
A ship can be 'on' a berth, which means is is moored (tied up) alongside a specific place called a berth in the dock. Or a berth is also used to describe a place for a crew member on board ship.
He was tied up to the mast of the ship so only he could hear the song of the sirens, not his crew.
