it takes 7 times the ammount of line to "hold" yer boat on a CALM day, and more to hold ya on a windy/ current day?
Ya see how far it is to touch the anchor to the bottom, figger out how long, and add 7 times the length to "hang "on??? Dang if it don't work good, heard it from an old salt down in Port Royal Sound.

Thats right sportskiff, seven feet of line for every foot of depth is always how I heard it.

Yep I knew that, but I think I am only good to 14 feet or so. Guess I need lots more anchor line................. :o
