License Oral exam Joke

[Kennebec Captain]

So the mate finishes his exam but the examiner want to ask a few question to determine the fitness of the candidate.He asks the mate: You''re anchored in 6 fathoms of water and the wind picks up and your vessel starts to drag anchor, what do you do?" "I'd drop another anchor," the mate replies. "Ok, says the examiner, "say the wind increases some more and with two anchors down, you again start to drag, what do you do then?" "I'd drop another anchor." is the answer. The examiner gets a little exasperated and asks, " Where the hell are you getting all these anchors? " Answer:" Same place you're getting all this wind."
