labomba asks:

-What the heck does that have to do with my statement?-

Bilge- I'm essentially agreeing with you:

-In a "good blow", the small amount of chain used in most chain and rode
setups is not going to keep the rode at a shallower angle-labomba

-We're talking chain AND line here. Not ALL chain.-labomba

and

-So, the 846 foot, 32,600gt Sealand Express was using line and chain at the
time?- labomba

Bilge- You know dang well that she wasn't, chum. The point is that even with 4
or 5 shots of chain along the bottom, AND a "set" danforth anchor, you still
need to keep an eye on your angle.


Yeesh...pardon me for supporting you.

Have a day;
