ABSTRACT:
An anchor system includes an anchor line having a first section proximate a floating structure, a second section proximate the anchoring ground or sea bed and an intermediate section comprising a sinker cable. The first and second sections are anchor chain comprising alternately disposed single link members and double link members pivotably interconnected with transverse bolts. The bolts are welded to the double link members and gaskets about the bolts are provided between the single and double link members to protect the portion of the bolt about which the single link member pivots. The anchor chain, proximate the floating structure, preferably includes anodes disposed to prevent corrosion. In another embodiment, the anchor chain is galvanized to inhibit corrosion.
