What is the proper anchoring technique?
Depending to a certain extent on the boat, but the general rule is to consult your charts before you ever drop anchor anywhere. Next, point the boat against the tidal flow if any and hold the boat stationary over the ground as you pay out the chain. Once the anchor has struck let the boat away with the flow until it stops and holds fast. Remember that every six hours the flow reverses and the tide either lifts or falls by its range. The amount of chain out should be about three times the depth of the water you are anchoring in and if staying for more than one tide (especially if the half-tide current is strong, you should really anchor fore and aft.

What is the best anchoring line?
The best anchoring line is one that is strong, durable, and suited to the specific conditions of the environment where it will be used. For marine applications, a high-quality nylon or polypropylene rope is often ideal due to its flexibility, resistance to abrasion, and ability to absorb shock loads. In addition, the anchoring line should be of appropriate length and diameter to ensure secure anchorage. Ultimately, the choice may vary based on factors like boat size, water conditions, and the type of anchor used.
Which boat should stand on when one boat is overtaking another boat?

The larger vessel already underway should continue, without the added concern of an overtaking smaller boat causing a collision.
