Sensors are used to provide intelligent data throughout the anchoring procedure, providing a continuous stream of information to a captain and crew. \u201cThe technology is entirely new and provides a smarter way, a safer way we can anchor,\u201d explained Suzy Chisholm, head of company communications and co-founder. \u201cWe\u2019re providing a wealth of information to a captain and crew, intelligence they didn\u2019t have before; laying the anchor, at anchor and lifting. \u201cWe\u2019re able to give all the information, what sediment there is, how far the anchor is from the seabed, when the anchor has hit the seabed, how its lying on the seabed. \u201cOur ultimate goal is to bring safety to anchoring.\u201d And if the anchor does start to drag, information is provided on how fast it\u2019s moving, with data visible on an electronic chart, providing predictions and triggering alarms, minimising the risk of groundings, collisions and environmental damage with the anchor ripping up the seabed. The technology operates independently of a GPS and any movement of a ship. \u201cHow to reduce the impact of an anchor on the seabed is a huge issue,\u201d added Suzy. \u201cAnchors do get dragged, and we want to minimise that as much as possible. \u201cIt\u2019s another tool in the crew\u2019s arsenal.\u201d AnchorGuardian has been certified by the leading class societies including Lloyds and RINA. The product will be in the Innovation showcase at Seawork and available to see with UK distributor, Atlantis Marine Power on stand P12.
