You just use a power windlass with a self dropping anchor with a up/

I agree, except for the size. I have found windlasses to be a bother
with modern designs at 32' or below, say about 5 tons. In the rare
cases
where we're leaving an anchorage in enough wind to make hauling
difficult, either Pat twiddles the motor controls or I shift the rode
to
the stern and haul with the genny winch.
How do you handle this situation, if you're the only person on the boat?
I mean, how do you get the anchor in place with the chain/rode, without
damaging the freeboard?
