Default Techniques for retrieving stuck anchors

SCUBA tanks. ;-)

If it's stuck, I just tie it off with just a couple of feet of slack, and
back away at various angles.

Hi,

I just just bought another boat which has a windlass. My previous boats did
not have a windlass so I used grapling hook anchors which where very easy to
unjam. Now with the dansforth anchor it is tougher when they get stuck, and
the windlass isn't strong enough to break it free.. So I am wondering what is
the best way to unhook the anchors when they get stuck

Thanks
Rick
