A few minutes later, while still in the eye and boarding the Russian ship, the sky is perfectly clear as far as the eye can see.

In one of the scenes you can see a North American electrical outlet, not a Russian one.

Foster uses a standard "floating needle" field compass to discover the direction to which the ship was "turning itself.

The anchor chains of large ships are secured to a bulkhead or deck in the chain locker.

The attachment is not, however, intended to restrain the chain should it run free as is shown when the ship's anchor is dropped through the tug.
