[Rhodes22-list] Anchoring - Again

[TN Rhodey]

Dave,

Many of us carry anchor in laz or cokpit. Mine is in a laundry basket under 
starboard cockpit seat pushed all the way forward.

My local anchorages are very protected and shallow. We often anchor from 
stern to direct breeze into cabin. When it is windy we anchor off bow.
