The problem: The anchor windlass has failed in some unfortunate
way,
and not easily repaired. How do you retrieve your expensive
anchor
and chain?

Drag the bottom with hook the right size to snag the chain.

Then what ?

Blame Obama.

No need to blame him for your petty anchor problems, D'Plume. He's
doing enough to catch hell for.

You're the one with the petty problems.

With no irony, D'Plume. You are simply *petty*

Spoken by a guy who enjoys stalking women? Well, ok.

But, who would mistake you for a woman, D'Plume?

Part of why we sometimes address de-plume as she-it.

The "why" is that you and your right-wing buddies here are assholes, and
worse, scared to death of women with brains. One can only imagine what
your aged Stepford Wives are like, eh?

Did not have time to read all the other answers, however, a 40' boat
by itself is a pretty good fulcrum pivoting about it's center of
buoyancy. So, get the chain vertical, heave till it is taught with
all persons ON THE BOW. Everybody goes aft which pulls the anchor
free. Repeat to slowly haul the anchor.

I think the premise was to pull a 400 lb anchor up after it is freed, if
your equipment failed.. The whole looping the line and drawing it all
the way aft, then hooking that up and looping it and dragging as much or
the rope as you can, forward, and on, till the thing is up... works out
as the best manual technique to me... I think Wayne brought that one
up...
