Never mind the ship’s wake - just nullify the wake from, and drag on, the propellers.

Don’t know I was surprised too, but I do know in that era of Americas Cup, they had to be equipped as a normal sea going vessel, hence an anchor which was correct in size for the corresponding vessel. Trust me, Fortress Anchors had also just come out at that time, and being made of aluminum, were quite a bit less in weight. I was happy to get the order and supply him, and the wall sized picture is nice too.

Perhaps Mr. Ellison could squeeze a few more coins out of ORCL to develop a supercavitating hydrofoil?
