My 'day' anchor for my 25' rigged tuna boat was an 8-pound hi-tensile Danforth that was rated to 32' boats in 40mph winds. Efen then My overnight anchor was a 14-poundversion.
But of course both had an amount of chain equal to the length of the hull, as it is the CATENARY EFFECT of the sentinel weight of the chain to the rode that allows an anchor to 'stick'.
