Default anchoring techniques

No, but it would work the same on a mooring. I have one of those too, only I
can't find it. Looked for it at home and figgured it was on the boat,
couldn't find it there either. Mostly use it as a sentinel/kellet.

Yeah, but were you on a mooring?

We have a spiffy 5# plastic coated mushroom anchor. Perfect for reducing

the
tendecny to sail around at anchor, and would probably work to hold the bow

into
a swell or wakes. But we don't do that. I figure that's part of being on

the
boat, it's kinda fun except when somebody spills the beer.
