    I used to agree that all chain was not
    necessary....but I have seen too many get their anchor
    rode chopped off/tangled by idiodic boaters who can't
    figure out how far away they should pass your bow in
    an anchorage. Esp in shallow areas such as Block
    Island.
    So I am an all chain fan now although I have anchored
    successfully for many years with 12 feet of heavy
    chain and 5/8 rode....attached to my trusty 20 lb
    Danforth.
    That's my story and I'm sticking to it ;>)

    Hey, right coasters. Ever thought of adding an anchor
    to the end of
    all
    that chain and rope?
