Vince “Enzo” Lauro and his crew were fishing for squid one day last year when they pulled up a 8,000 pound anchor — that could be 200 years old.
An 8,000 pound Trotman anchor circa 1860-1910 in San Pedro on Thursday, April 6, 2023. Vince Lauro found the British made anchor off the coast of Long Beach. It is so rusted that the striations in the metal make it appear to be wood.
L-R Vince Lauro and Capt. Michael Patterson with an 8,000 pound Trotman anchor circa 1860-1910 in San Pedro on Thursday, April 6, 2023. Lauro found the British made anchor several miles off the coast of Long Beach. It is so rusted that the striations in the metal make it appear to be wood. But what they wound up hauling onboard nearly rolled the vessel: An old, 8,000-pound anchor that had been sucked down long ago into the ocean floor several miles off the Long Beach breakwater opening.But once the crew hauled the anchor onboard, on Nov. 14, they were “kind of stuck with it,” he said.And now, the Trotman-style anchor — which could be as old as 200 years — sits along the Southern Pacific Slip, where San Pedro’s commercial fishing vessels are tied up.
)In the meantime, Capt. Michael Patterson, a private contractor working with the Los Angeles Maritime Institute, which is next door, has been doing some research on the find.“We need a forklift to get this thing off the boat,” he told Patterson.His research showed the anchor would have been made in Great Britain sometime between 1860 and 1910.
Once they saw what came up, Lauro said, the crew first “had to get it off the gear” and inside the boat before heading back to shore.
