You are caught in a storm in your boat engine stops what should you do?
Deploy a storm anchor (sea anchor) from the bow; something that will slow the boat's drift downwind. Something like a small drogue parachute in the water. The wind will cause the boat to drift, and the waves to rise; the storm anchor will slow down the drift, and keep the boat pointed into the wind. Bow-on is the safest direction for your boat to meet the waves. Otherwise, the wind would tend to push the boat sideways, and you could easily capsize.

Is a sea anchor effective against current?
No, a sea anchor is not effective against current. Sea anchors are used to stabilize a boat in rough seas or high winds by creating drag, but they do not significantly impact a boat's movement in a current. Other methods, such as using the engine or drift socks, are more effective for managing current.

What was Jesus doing when the storm arose while crossing the sea of Galilee with his disciples?
When the storm arose while Jesus and his disciples were crossing the Sea of Galilee, Jesus was asleep in the boat. His disciples, fearing for their lives due to the violent winds and waves, woke him up, pleading for help. Jesus then calmed the storm by rebuking the wind and the sea, demonstrating his authority over nature and reassuring his disciples of their faith.
What could happen if you anchor a boat from the stern?
There are vessels designed to to specifically anchor from the stern of the vessel. However if you mean a "fishing boat" as a small recreational or "pleasure" craft like a bass boat, it is almost NEVER recommended to anchor from the transom of a boat. This is especially true if you have any type of current or sea state (even lake or wind waves) as your stern is the lowest part of the boat to the waterline and swamping can happen fast. I have personally seen it at the mouth of the Columbia River bar located in Pacific Northwest. Not to mention you run the risk of fouling your props with the anchor rode.
