There are a few things to consider when determining if polypropylene line would be good for an anchor on a boat. First, polypropylene line is not as strong as other types of rope, so it may not be able to hold the anchor in place in rough conditions. Second, polypropylene line is not as durable as other types of rope and may break down over time. Finally, polypropylene line is not as buoyant as other types of rope, so it may not float as well and could sink.

The best type of anchor rope is typically nylon, as it has good strength, elasticity, and resistance to abrasion.

How do you use a dragging anchor?

Dragging an anchor is never a good thing. It means you either have the improper anchor, scope or bottom to effectively anchor. Are you asking about a drogue anchor, which is like an underwater parachute? It is "dragged" behind a vessel to either slow up or stabilize the maneuverability of a boat.
