What are the units used when measuring the depth of water?

Depth of Water Measurement.Water is measured by many strategies such as a sounding line, depth guages (based on pressure) and by sonar messurement. Before the moden age, sailors would throw lead weighted lines into the water. These were marked off in six foot increment (fathoms) and would call out the depth, or int he old English phrase - sound off, hence the term sounding the depth.Submarines brought a new requirement for depth measurement, the need to know how deep the boat was in the water. Since water has weight, there is a direct correllation to the depth of the water and the pressure outside the submarine. Most depth guages are calibated in feet or meters of seawater as most submarines operate in salt water, which is heavier than fresh (non-salty) water.Modern electronics has now allowed sophisticated measuring devices to bounce waves off the bottom and determine exaclty the depth of water that a boat is in. This is now used on many pleasure and fishing boats as a necessary navigation aid.Satellite detection of water depth is now used to determine changes in fresh water reserves on continents and to determine the changes in climates and geography.

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.
