A simplified structure allows inspection of the installation strength of an anchor installed underwater. A method includes applying, to an anchor, a lifting force from above a floating body floating on a water surface to submerge the floating body into water, and setting a volume of submergence by which the floating body is submerged to a value to produce a lifting force corresponding to a predetermined installation strength and determining whether the anchor is immovable. The volume of submergence by which the floating body is submerged to produce the lifting force corresponding to the predetermined installation strength is calculated based on the buoyancy acting on the floating body.
