've been lucky not to have a stuck anchor, yet, but how about swinging the
boat 180 deg and the reversing on teh anchor... same direction/motion as
going fwd, great leverage, but without the risk of scratching the hull....
may require paying out some slack so that the boat could be swung around and
then takingthe slack again, could be tricky if alone with wind/current but
it could work
