When a ship is lying at anchor in a tidal area using both forward anchors, to what particular aspect should the officer of the watch be paying special attention?
When the ship swings to the tide the direction of swing should be controlled to avoid the anchor cables becoming wrapped round each other.

The two anchors will restrict the ships swing with the tide and the ship may not lie to the prevailing current and wind
The tension on both cables should be similar, to avoid one dragging and all the weight of the ship remaining on the other anchor only.
