Robo1098 Posted February 12, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I look at the huge anchors on Oasis class ships and wonder. Are the anchors ever used on these ships? They don't tender and they don't ever seem to sit still while out at sea. Unless they are close to land I don't think the anchor could reach the bottom. I would think they must be there in case of emergency but was wondering if they ever drop anchor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Captain Funtime Posted February 12, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2018 The newer ships use dynamic positioning, a computerized driven combination of thrusters, propellers and GPS to keep the vessel in place. Used also on drilling rigs. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
