Which sequence correctly describes how to anchor a boat?

• A. Head into wind or current whichever is stronger; approach at low throttle and use wind or current as brake to slow you down; best to stop and lower the anchor over the bow slowly rather than heaving it; as you lower anchor wind or current should slowly back boat away; when the anchor touches the bottom, the crown will help the flukes take hold in the bottom; Ensure anchor has taken a good hold of the bottom and isn't dragging before securing line to a bow cleat.
• B. Drop anchor from stern; drive away quickly.
• C. Head into wind or current whichever is weaker; throw anchor overboard.
• D. Stop the engine, drop anchor in one motion.
