Anchor Rope & Line

If you are looking for the best anchor rope for your boat, you need to consider several factors, such as the depth of the water, the weight of your anchor, and the type of bottom you will be anchoring on. The anchor rope, also known as the anchor line or the rode, is the link between your boat and the anchor that holds it in place. The anchor rope should be long enough to allow a proper scope, which is the ratio of the length of the rode to the depth of the water. A scope of 7:1 is recommended for most situations, meaning that you should use 7 meters of anchor rope for every meter of water depth. This will ensure that your anchor has enough horizontal pull to dig into the bottom and keep your boat secure.
