The Fathom remains vital in maritime navigation, measuring water depth and anchor chains. One fathom equals 6 feet. For reference, recreational scuba divers typically explore depths of 10-20 fathoms (60-120 feet), while the Titanic rests at about 1,200 fathoms (7,200 feet) below sea level. Primarily used in horse racing (UK/US). 1 furlong = 660 feet = 1/8 mile.
To convert between Fathom (ftm) and Furlong (fur), use the following formulas:
1 Fathom (ftm) = 0.00909090909090909 Furlong (fur)
1 Furlong (fur) = 110 Fathom (ftm)
1 ftm = 1 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.00909090909090909 fur
5 ftm = 5 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.045454545454545456 fur
10 ftm = 10 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.09090909090909091 fur
20 ftm = 20 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.18181818181818182 fur
50 ftm = 50 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.45454545454545453 fur
100 ftm = 100 * 0.00909090909090909 fur = 0.9090909090909091 fur
