Re: M_Boats: bow anchoring

Hi Craig, When I single-handed my 29 footer, and wanted to anchor, I brought the anchor from the fore deck to the cockpit, then dropped the anchor from the cockpit. Reasons: I want to place the boat where I want it - with tiller in my hand. I don't want to be on the bow, then find that I am being blown down on someone else, and have to run back to the cockpit to engage my motor and give the engine some gas, in order to correct the situation. It works fine. What's wrong with dropping the anchor from the cockpit? On the 29 footer it was a 22 lb. Danforth; on the M15 it is a 5.5 lb. Bruce.................! Connie
