YET ANOTHER ANCHOR

This came in from Frank Pekary

Hi Dan:  The anchor at Gate 6 reminded me of an encounter with an anchor many years ago and I just happened to have a photo of that anchor.  I was on a barnacle detail on the Sea Scout tub in the refinery one day and saw it nearby.  This anchor does not look like any that were on the tankers (lake or sea) or the one that ended up at Gate 6.  I have googled "anchors" and found that this design was used in the late 1800s.  So, what was it doing on a refinery dock on Aruba?  Was it one of the anchors that were recovered while recovering some other anchors during those operations?  Is it still on the island, perhaps as a tourist attraction?  There may be a good story that goes along with this anchor that visitors to your web site would enjoy.  The picture was taken in the fall of 59 or spring of 60.

Then he sent another email.

And no, it is not John Geis's anchor.  The one in my picture is much larger than his but has the same design.
