How Anchors Work on Ships From Early to Modern

The article explains cement can anchors for small boats and iron anchors for large ships. Early anchors featured flukes on a curved shank with a stock to ensure digging into mud and preventing dragging. Modern anchors are stockless with a pivoting arm so both flukes bite into the mud and hold the vessel in place.
