Wortelboer Component
Anchor 'D' end shackle
Anchor 'D' end shackle, the second shackle from the anchor after the crown shackle, for chain diameters of 19–132 mm.
Description
The anchor 'D' end shackle is the second shackle from the anchor, the first being the crown shackle. It is used together with a swivel forerunner and a Kenter joining shackle in the common anchor-to-chain construction found aboard many vessels. Wortelboer advises regularly checking the condition of the 'D' end shackle to prevent premature loss of the anchor.
