In Canada, an anchor _is_ a federal requirement. See
http://www.ccg-gcc.gc.ca/obs-bsn. They do not, however, state anything about
the anchor except that it exist!

That's a good idea. Include proper anchors in the list of necessary
toys.
I've had the CG look over my yacht and check everything EXCEPT the
anchor.

I don't know where you are, Doug, but the requirement to have an anchor
aboard is not Federal. Many states have placed their own requirement for
an
anchor, and generally the CG will include the anchor as required in those
states.

Sorry, Charles. Once again, I forgot to specify. :-)
