Another time we watched an older couple attempt to anchor their
40-something
cat in way too small an area between two other boats in Little Harbor at
Peter Island. The guy would motor right up to the boat ahead and tell his
wife to drop the anchor, then pay out rode until he was almost on top of
the
boat behind. Dissatisfied with the first two attempts, he tried again,
only
this time his wife literally threw the anchor into the cockpit of the
boat
ahead. The fireworks that ensued were worth the price of airfare.

Can't imagine any "older" woman "throwing" an anchor big enough to
hold a "40-something cat".

It was a Fortress--a large one, but light enough, apparently. Made one hell
of a racket when it landed in the cockpit of the monohull ahead.
