Type your answer here... Lower your anchor, put the boat in reverse and backup until the flukes dig in, tie it off and your done.
Didn't work? That's probably because:
1. Proper sized anchor for the boat.
2. 5 feet of chain attached between the anchor and the rode (rope)
3. 5 - 10 times the depth is the amount of rode must be played out
The chain and length of the rode are all about creating the proper angle of the rode in relation to the anchor and boat. If the anchor rode angle is too steep, it will pull the flukes out of the bottom, resulting in boat drifting.
Approach the anchor position, head to wind or current.
The vessel should be moving slowly astern before letting go.
Lay the cable on the bottom, usually three times the depth, or more in rough weather.

To improve your technique for anchoring the guitar while playing, focus on finding a comfortable and stable position for your picking hand. Experiment with different anchoring points on the guitar, such as the bridge or the pickguard, to see what works best for you. Practice playing slowly and gradually increase your speed while maintaining a consistent anchoring technique. Additionally, pay attention to your posture and hand positioning to ensure proper alignment and reduce strain on your muscles.
One place to avoid anchoring a boat would be to not anchor it near a launching ramp.

Depending to a certain extent on the boat, but the general rule is to consult your charts before you ever drop anchor anywhere. Next, point the boat against the tidal flow if any and hold the boat stationary over the ground as you pay out the chain. Once the anchor has struck let the boat away with the flow until it stops and holds fast. Remember that every six hours the flow reverses and the tide either lifts or falls by its range. The amount of chain out should be about three times the depth of the water you are anchoring in and if staying for more than one tide (especially if the half-tide current is strong, you should really anchor fore and aft.
