(posted this in another thread, but I figure I'd get answers here too)
I found a grappling hook with a 6' chain on it while diving so I plan to use it on my 19' boat. Here's a pic of the grapple that I found:
Suppose the wreck is at 70' deep (Mercedes/Jay Scutti in Fort Lauderdale), how long should my anchor line be? How about 100' deep (Jim Atria/Rebel)?
Also, when the grapple is hooked to the wreck, should the first diver down carry a chain & shackle to secure the line to the wreck since the grapple may become loose?
How does the boat unhook the grapple from the wreck?
