We do not have strong winds & currents like UK has, typically 10/18 knots, for my personal anchoring configuration am currently using a 2 meter lenght danforth 2.5 Kg anchor & 0.7 mm chain set up, with 20 meter rolled 0.7 mm nylon rope to the dispenser and fixed with removable stainles steel parts. Have workeg fine for me, my total sib, engine, anchor, full gas tank & extras only weights 160 Kg. Will anchor the boat with 4 adults as well. Usually using 5/10 meter rope lenght as we anchor near sandy beaches.
Happy Boating
