People
who rely solely on one anchor and expect not to drag are idiots who
undoubtedly attended the Skip Grundlacks school of sailing.

Idiots like the US Navy and every anchored commercial ship that I've
ever seen.

Go away Wilbur, you are the challenged one in this discussion.


Wilbur has the best anchoring solution. He carries 10 45# CQR's on his
Mouseturd boat, setting three forward, three aft, and two on each beam.
This keeps his 27 foot vessel perfectly secure on Lake Okeechobee. I
salute him.



Nope. He's got 11. The last one is permanently attached to the bottom of
his keel.
