.....and due to its weight, it can also reduce the angle between the rode and
the sea/lake bed, which will help the anchor "bite" better. I've read this,
but I'm not sure how important it really is. Probably depends on the
prevailing conditions when you first drop anchor.

rope.. what is the reason? I was trying to search on Internet but
couldn't
find a good explanation. Can anyone tell me why please? thanks
