9/12/23: Due to the comments, I think a better description is warranted for the vid. This was an anchoring evolution near Panama. Only three shots (270') were supposed to go out but there were issues with the brake not setting. We ended up sending out around six hundred feet before resolving the issue. When the chain turns red, that means there's only 90' left (one shot) so this was only a few feet of chain short of a disaster. In our lexicon, "runaway anchor" is one that is out of control - as in this situation. Also, the guy up front is standing at parade rest waiting to hear a whistle letting him know to raise the union jack signaling that we are anchored. I was the safety officer (white hard hat) and thought these guys did great handling the situation. This was the USCGC DILIGENCE (WMEC 616) February 2018. Video credit to the ship's engineer officer who set up the shot.
