Anchor selection has always been one of those areas where experience really matters. I've seen too many boaters struggle because they have the wrong anchor for the conditions. I'm trying to put together a guide on boat anchor essentials for different situations.
What anchors work best for sandy bottoms versus rocky bottoms? How about mud or grass? And what about secondary anchors - when do you need them?
Also, what other anchor-related gear is essential? Proper rode length, chain, anchor buoys, etc. I want to make sure I'm covering all the boat anchor essentials, not just the anchor itself.
