As to my suggestion... planning in advance, attach a send line

Usually called a trip line.

Ok a trip line. Add a pulley and a line that is long enough.

Add a pulley, aka, block where ?



Here you go... obviously this is not to scale, but I think you'll get
the idea. More than one fender could be lowered, and in the drawing,
the anchor marker is already on board.

All you have to do is to have the marker attached to a line that
already goes through a block at the anchor. You could even leave it
as a light line, then if there's a problem, tie a heavier line to the
lighter line and pull it through to the point where you could attach
a fender.

Another option (not sure if it's really workable) would be to have a
CO2 cartridge ready at the anchor... you pull the float line, and
pop! My inflatable vest claims 36 lbs. of lift... something like
that..., but I still think the multiple fender option would work
better.


All you have to do is figger a way to keep the anchor from spinnin on
the way down, for obvious reasons,


Spinning?? What's that got to do with retrieval? The fender wouldn't be
attached until you need it. Are you stupid or what.


Actually it's you that's stupid. The trip line could and probably would
get twisted around the rode rendering the whole getup useless as tits on
a bull. Get it now dummy.


What are you talking about??? Are you now claiming that a buoy line
marking your anchor position is going to make the anchor spin?

Looks like you're the one who's got the tits on a bull.

Yes, you're a dummy.



Didn't see any bouy line or bouy in your drawing. I see a fender, a block,
and a trip line attached to the crown of an anchor. What gives with that
contraption ? I'm mystified.


Well, look again. Next time read the text also.
