I cannot imagine that. Huge Evergiven trying to stay in place.
Not that I know about anything marine in nature, but I looked up "azipod" and it describes itself as a thruster. Bow thrusters have "thruster" in the name. Based on that, I would assume each of those require energy and thus fuel. My understanding is that anchors, once deployed, are passive. Disregarding (only for the purposes of this conversation) the ethics, is that not why they're still used?
Gotcha, thank you for the edification.
