How much chain and rope would you need for a 7.5kg Bruce anchor?

It depends on how deep the water is you are anchoring in. If you use all chain then multiply the depth by 3 and add enough extra chain to reach from the water surface to your cleat. If you use all rope then multiply the depth by 5 and add enough rope to reach from the water to your cleat.
