On the topic of anchors and anchoring. Does anyone have any thoughts
on kelets or "anchor buddies"?
I ALWAYS use a kellet made from a small vinyl coated mushroom anchor, a
couple of carabiners, 30 feet of small diameter line for retrieval, and
one of these so it glides up and down the anchor line:

Open the pulley and slip it over the rode. Slide it closed, and hang the
anchor on it using the carabiner. Retrieval line is tied to the
carabiner. Easy-peasey!
In over 50 years, in conditions mild to wild, I have never dragged while
using a kellet. I consider it essential, and it really is nothing to
deploy and retrieve it.
