Default Docking Situation Question #3

No, but you have to use your anchor. There is no other way, apparently. :-)
I can just see people swinging their anchor around their heads like the
hammer throw in the Olympics, so they can get it out far enough to kedge.

It's actually pretty simple. - Sit back, sip a few margaritas, and sail
out when the winds change direction.

With medium to large boats, however, aren't you going to have auxiliary
power?
