I will have to measure the chain length, I would think it is only 8-10 feet or so, maybe I will look into lengthening the chain part.

We have never had an issue anchoring really but I think I have had some sets where I was probably closer to a 2:1 ratio, but never around any other boats or areas where if we did break loose it would be an issue.

I also like the idea of tying a safety line to a small buoy or something just in case it did get stuck or break off...
