Generally speaking, the larger your boat, the larger the anchor you need and the smaller your vessel, the smaller the anchor you’ll want to buy.  To determine what size anchor you need, you can use a boat/anchor chart. Ater you determined which weight of anchor you need, then you may consider about the chains to be fitted with.
