Spearmon represented his country internationally over 200 m several times. His first international medal came at the 1986 Goodwill Games, where he was a bronze medallist close behind fellow American Dwayne Evans, making it a sweep for the United States as Floyd Heard topped the podium. A year later he won two gold medals at the 1987 Summer Universiade in Zagreb. First, he defeated Heard to win the 200 m title, and then the pair teamed up with Lee McRae and Lorenzo Daniel to secure the 4×100 m gold medals. The relay win was the start of a long winning streak for the United States in that event, which lasted until 2001. Returning to the United States, he was chosen for the team for the 1987 Pan American Games held in Indianapolis. A run of 20.53 seconds brought him the 200 m bronze medal, with Heard and Brazil's Robson Caetano da Silva getting the better of him. That year he set a personal best of 20.27 seconds for the 200 m in Rhede, Germany. He competed for his nation at the global level, reaching the 200 m semi-finals at the 1987 World Championships in Athletics. He had a son – Wallace Spearmon Jr. – in 1984 and encouraged him to also take up track sprinting. He coached his son for a long period and continued on as mentor. His son ultimately bettered his father's achievements by winning three indi[cell cut: 2126 characters, first 2000 kept]

Sea anchor
wiki page ID: 1004793
type: Thing
abstract: A sea anchor (also known as a drift anchor, drift sock, para-anchor or boat brake) is a device that is streamed from a boat in heavy weather. Its purpose is to stabilize the vessel and to limit progress through the water. Rather than tethering the boat to the seabed with a conventional anchor, a sea anchor provides drag, thereby acting as a brake. Normally attached to a vessel's bows, a sea anchor can prevent the vessel from turning broadside to the waves and being overwhelmed by them. Early sea anchors were crude devices, but today most take the form of a marine drogue parachute. These are so efficient that they need a tripping line to collapse the parachute for retrieval. Being made of fabric, a sea parachute may be bagged and easily stowed when not in use. (A similar device to the sea anchor is the much smaller drogue, which is streamed from a vessel's stern in strong winds so as to slow the boat to prevent pitchpoling or broaching in an ).
