Moronic Q, but I'm confused for some reason.......
Always used dad's boat in the past, threw the anchor out and clipped the sucker in. Should've paid more attention I guess.
Now I've got my own and..........
I've got an anchor, anchor buddy, 3' vinyl coated chain, anchor buoy, 100' of 7/16 braided line (to make an anchor line extension and shore tie line), several spring hooks(to put at various lengths for deep water anchoring if needed?)......and no freakin idea how to set this up the correct way so I don't have to F with it again. It's got to be basic, but my brain is melting from a long week of work and I can't pull my thoughts together. How much line is enough for the shore line? How do you splice this stuff?
Some quick advice please. I'm heading to the water tomorrow.
Thanks,
