Re: Anchoring equations
On my 343 I did well for years with a 35# Delta with 100' of 5/16" chain backed by 200' nylon. Given where I anchor, 99% of the time I am "all chain". I used two 35# Deltas to survive Hurricane Michael but I think I got real lucky.

I have since upgraded to 44# Rocna and could not be happier. I would not want anything heavier on bow.
