125. What is meant by veering the anchor chain?
Veering the anchor chain means paying out additional chain. This action increases the scope, improving the anchor's holding ability and reducing strain on the ground tackle. The term refers to letting out chain, unlike heaving in, bringing the anchor to short stay, or locking the windlass, which describe different anchoring actions.
