  1. mooring anchor

    A mooring anchor is a heavy object or device attached to a chain or line that is used to secure a vessel, such as a ship, boat, or other floating structure, to a fixed point to prevent it from drifting due to wind, current, or waves. It's generally dropped to the sea, river, or lake bed to provide a stable point for mooring. Its design and weight ensure it can grip the bottom surface effectively, providing sufficient resistance to movement.
