INSTALLATION T6 



The anchor didn't fire the first time down. The water depth was 47 

 feet (14.4 m) instead of the 60 feet (18 m) measured 50 feet (15m) 

 away. The safety plunger prevented firing in that shallow depth. 

 Therefore, a new, weaker spring was installed in the S/A device and the 

 anchor was returned to the seafloor, fired, and test-pulled. 



INSTALLATIONS T7, T8 



Both anchors were installed and tested within a 1-1/2-hour time 

 period. The first anchor was almost completely assembled the previous 

 night and loading the cartridge and installing the S/A were all that 

 were required. However, the 1-1/2-hour total turn-around time that 

 elapsed between firings was indicative of how the crew's familiarity 

 with the system had progressed.
