well, the wind switched direction to the ne, i set my main anchor and put out 200 feet, then set my secondary anchor on 150 feet 90 degrees from the main both anchors are bruce anchors 33lb and 22lb respectively. i put a 3rd anchor on 200 feet directly in front this third anchor is a 25lb danforth - i then fired up the diesel put her in reverse at 1000 rpm and lunch and let everything settle - i’m not worried about dragging but we all knowcthere is more to it than that
