If you have to ask you probably won't take good advice
anyway.

1) there is NO substitute for weight when it comes to anchoring
2) combination rodes consisting of three-strand nylon and chain are
the best choice.
3) two anchors placed so they pull against each other are always better
than one.
4) one anchor in light and fluky winds especially if there are currents
can and often do 'trip out' and don't reset because the chain is
wrapped around the shank or crown.
5) if one wishes to have a good night's sleep in the event of a squall
or frontal passage, two anchors set pulling against each other is
the only way to ensure it.
6) One should always consider that conditions change and one should
anchor for the maximum likely conditions of wind and current.

OK, so what's your advice? Chrome his anchor?

If the wind is really light, you're probably just sitting to the anchor chain.
Before I
switched to the "anchor smarter, not heavier" philosophy
