Subject: Anchoring
I carry a Bruce and a Danforth knockoff (each with chain and rode) in a
plastic basket in the port cockpit locker. It is a simple procedure to set
an anchor from the cockpit and walk the rode forward after the anchor is set
and the boat is stable. Usually, especially when I overnight at local
lakes, I set an anchor aft from the stern and run a line from the bow to the
shore. Since I usually sail single-handed, deploying or weighing the
anchor, controlling the sails and operating the outboard from the cockpit
helps keep everything manageable.
