  1. Would simply attach a long rope and a buoy to the chain before release. Then dump the chain, and rope length will be actual depth plus a little more, so that the chain pulls the rope down more or less taut. Then afterwards a lift barge can come salvage the anchor, saving a good chunk of money for the owners, and keeping from getting a fine from the port operator for dumping in a shipping channel.

  2.  @wgowshipping  Yes and most new ICE cars are shipped with a part tank of fuel, simply to cover the driving needed to get from the plant to the ship, and off the ship afterwards, into the receiving warehouse at the ports. So each will have roughly a half tank of fuel in them. EV's will, if new, only have a part charge as well, basically the initial test charge at the plant, then the discharge where the battery pack was tested for initial QC and to allow the BMS to get a capacity map for each cell block. Then whatever was used to drive on the ship, and the losses from self discharge or the battery needing to maintain temperature. Yes likely they are going to require disconnecting the 12V battery pack once parked, so will make shipping take 15 minutes more per vehicle both ends, as they will have the additional step after loading and tie down, and the same before undoing the straps. But will also result in some strange faults as most modern vehicles really do not like the battery disconnected, and many luxury vehicles, especially those with electric handbrake, have a second auxiliary battery as well that you need to disconnect, which often needs dismantling parts of the interior to reach it.
