San Francisco Mariner Invents a Drag
Anchor Made of Canvas


L. M. Furman, practical seaman, has
invented drag or sia anchor, says the
| San Francisco Call, which combines both
simplicity and efficiency and will doubt
less be adopted by seagolng vessels.
1t is "a large bag made of strong canvas
attached to an iron ring about ten FEET
in diameter. Rhis drag is put over the
weather bow OF the vessel with seyerai
hundred fest Of rope and permitted TO
sink about twelve or fifteen feet below
the surface of tine water. This is easily
regulated by small buoy attached to
the drag with line of that length. The
canvas bag sinks below the base of the
waves consequently the rollers, which
drive the vessel leeward, have no effect
upon the drag, which Gld with water,
KEEPS the ship head-on to the sel con-
stlntly. The vessel cannot fall off, and,
1t is safe to say, had the Colima had
this simple contrivance the frightful dis
aster might ndTe been averted.
Whsn 1t is desi- Il to pull the drag
aboard the tripping lines' which run
through small rings on the iron frame
and around the bag are pulled. This
draws the canvas into small compass
turning the whole contrlvance sideways
and causing 1t to be easily hauleu
through the water up to the surface ana
then to the bow of the vessel When
not spread, 1t is SO small that ii may be
lowered over the side of the ship in the
hardest blow, as 1t Is simply taken up by
hand and thrown into the sea, when it
opens and begins TO pull on the bow OF
The steamer.
