I would not be afraid of a double anchor and chain combo as described, for a week at a time. I have left my boat on double rope only many times. It would be good to set the anchors very hard and view them to make sure.

I agree with mushroom type 100% for mooring.
I 've seen them at Faucets in Annapolis but I guess it's a little to far (LOL)

Mark:
When I lived in Connecticut and kept my boat at a small yacht club on Long Island Sound, each boat supplied its own mooring. One season a hurricane hit. The boats with heavy, mushroom type moorings fared well. The ones with a three anchor, danforth type anchor mooring didn't do so well.
So, for a 27' sloop, I would put down a 300 lb mushroom mooring and you should be fine unattended. Chapman's gives the design for such a mooring.
