The answer to the riddle is "an anchor." When you need to secure a boat in place, you throw the anchor overboard. Once you no longer need it, you bring it back on board and keep it stored.
A rapidly ringing bell every minute signals a vessel at anchor.
To remove an anchor from a boat effectively and safely, follow these steps: Ensure the boat is securely anchored and not drifting. Put on gloves to protect your hands. Use a winch or windlass to slowly raise the anchor. Keep the anchor chain or rope taut as you lift the anchor. Once the anchor is clear of the water, secure it on the boat to prevent it from swinging. Rinse off any mud or debris from the anchor before stowing it away. By following these steps, you can safely and effectively remove an anchor from a boat.
No, an anchor does not have to touch the bottom in order to secure a boat in place. The anchor's design and weight help it grip the seabed and hold the boat in place.
