Anchors?

[2knots]

I have a Danforth Fluke anchor on my boat that works well in soft or sandy bottoms and moderate currents, I also have a Columbia River anchor that works great in hard clay or large rocks/shale areas and heavy currents. Both anchors have a slip ring so you can go forward from where you dropped it and pull it out if it gets stuck, the key with anchors is to have 6-8' of chain between your rope and anchor so that the anchor bites into the bottom and then letting out enough rope so that wave action is not lifting the anchor up
