The advise about the snubber is excellent.

I'd be a little concerned that 10 M of snubber line would wrap itself around
the anchor chain making it very difficult to use a windlass for retrieval.
Happened to me. Sometimes fast retrieval is important. I have seen
recommendations for snubbers that suggest only letting out enough line to
reach the water surface. I think this may be a better idea.
