Re: Attaching / Using an Anchor
been there done seen it and I can tell you my dad didnnt have funny nights for a long time.

..it landed on my mum's head.
I expect it's just colorful description in this post but I have seen people who actually throw their anchors overboard. I'm mystified by this practice as it seems dangerous to me. I prefer to LOWER my anchor into the water and down to the bottom. What if that line is wrapped around something it's not supposed to be? Uncontrolled deployment of the anchor and line is asking for trouble IMHO.
