that's a lot of feet

i'm lucky if i can anchor in 10 feet with 2 anchors

i dont know anyone with 1000 feet of rode

I THINK WE'RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT

that is just the rule of thumb. You can get away with less on a calm day.

when I go out there, I choose my day carefully where the weather is good and anchoring will be easier.

depends how heavy your anchor is also.....may need some serious chain to get down quick before you drift off the anchor spot
