Our boat has a bulb with a stinger that extends past the trailing edge of the 
keel. I use a kellet, (Walmart 20# mushroom anchor) and it does a good job to 
keep the slack on the bottom and a small round fender to keep the line near the 
surface as far from the bow as possible, but found the best prevention, is an 
alarm clock to check the anchor during a tide change. If the wind is opposite 
the current, we anchor somewhere else.

They can be invaluable if you have a short length of chain and are anchoring in 
a current. Absent a kellet or enough chain, being anchored off Chestertown with 
a 2 knot reversing current always ends up with the rode around the keel.

On the topic of anchors and anchoring. Does anyone have any thoughts on kelets 
or "anchor buddies"?
