[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 392721, member: 15636"] We anchor like that all the time when fishing offshore for tuna in hundreds of feet of water. It allows us to un-clip from the anchor rode (float ball on the bitter end) in an instant! As we fight the fish away from and off the anchor rode ... But more importantly, we can set it out from the safety of the cockpit without going forward in NASTY seas and weather.[i] I think in this case a picture is worth a lot more than words.[/i] See if my simple sketch makes any sense to you!
