I had a winch but didn't use it all too often. I also had a plough about
70# for storms but rarely deployed it. Some like a fisherman for rocks
but I figured the plough would suffice if I ever had that bottom which I
never did. What shapes are you anchors? Do you also have a lunch hook?
Our primary is a Rocna, our secondary is a Delta (73 and 55# respectively).
Because we have a windlass, there is no 'lunch hook' as it's very convenient
to launch and retrieve.
We also have a Fortress 37 KD and in a bag, along with the 50'/150 5/16G40
chain/1"MegaBraid bag. We've never deployed it. Two larger-than-dinghy
(maybe 25#) Danforth-style have been used in the past when we've wanted to
not swing with the current, as dual stern anchors. We had to tighten the
lines from time to time, but they were OK to the purpose.
