There has been lots of info about sailing around at anchor on various boats and our 420 definitely has the problem. After turning broadside to the wind and dragging thru a crowded anchorage during a thunderstorm we upgraded the anchor to a 66 LB Bruce. We are now thinking of an all chain rode. However, I'm also thinking that our best bet may be an anchor riding sail. Rather than spending a lot of trial and error time perhaps there is someone out there with a similar boat, 420, 426, 410, etc that has experience with an anchor riding sail. Obvious questions are how well does it work and how is it rigged? Lacking a backstay complicates things and our in mast furler means the mainsail halyard isn't available although the topping lift should be.Pete Econ
