Most boating experts agree that, for greatest anchoring security, you should carry two Anchors - of different styles - one of each. The type of bottom will dictate your different choices of Anchors as will the size and windage of the boat, the wind conditions and the seastate. some anchoring situations also call for more than one anchor to be used.
You sometimes need to set two Anchors in a crowded anchorage, with anchors at the bow and the stern of the boat to limit its ability to swing. In heavy weather conditions, where one anchor may not have enough holding power, setting a second anchor may be critical to staying put. Remember that as the wind speed doubles the force on the boat (and the ground tackle system) increases by four times.
