In anchor chain, what does the reference BBB chain stand for?

 

Send your answers to george@bwsailing.com. A winner will be selected randomly from the correct answers.

 

Thanks to everyone who send in answers to last week’s question. The winner this week is Eric Lovell, Clearwater, Florida, who emailed: “The phrase refers to an approaching squall at sea. If the rain hits you before the wind picks up, then it’s going to be a big squall with high winds. Time to reef.”
