Anchor bend grips metal rings better
The anchor bend connects rope to an anchor ring or shackle - common at sea for securing the anchor cable.
More reliable than a few loose wraps because the knot itself bites and won't slip under towing.
3D animation clearly shows how the working end passes through the ring, wraps the standing part, where to finish - the part hard to draw in a sea-chart manual.
Reminder: real anchoring involves vessel safety - follow seamanship norms and practice under experienced guidance.
