An underwater connector for connecting a chain under water. The connector includes a connector body having a first end with an anchoring point and a second end for the anchoring of the chain. The second end includes an inlet opening that is communicated with a housing in the connector body, the housing configured to house an end link of the chain. The connector also includes a locking plate that is moveable from a first position outside the housing of the connector body and a second position inside the housing of the connector body. When the locking plate is in the first position an end link of the chain is allowed to pass through the inlet opening and into the housing of the connector body. When the locking plate is in the second position the locking plate contacts the end link to lock the end link inside the housing.
