I actually find it much safer and easier to pull the anchor from the cockpit... the only trip to the bow is to cleat the line when we drop in and to un-cleat the line when pulling up.... I hate sending anyone to the bow at all in nothing but the most calm conditions.... I really don't want them to walk up to the bow with a pipe in their hands (leaving only one hand to hold on to the boat with) and perform surgery on the anchor. It seems whenever I'm bottom fishing it's always blowing 20
