even my old (over 10 years) Garmin GPSMAP 76S has that function. This might be different for other manufacturers.

Bill, My old Garmin Chart plotter does exactly that. The anchor alarm sets up a radius from a point and sounds when you go outside it. Pretty sure most of them have that feature.

I've often wished for an anchor alarm app for my smart phone or GPS chartplotter that would work like the range alarm on my RADAR where you set a ring of a particular range, rather than just a directional distance, and if you moved outside of that circle, the alarm would sound. Seems to me that GPS makers have missed the boat on what would be a really great feature to use as a sales pitch.

First time I set my anchor alarm, I allowed for 10 feet of drag. During the night there was a slight wind change, no drag but Finesse did swing. LIke you it got me up in a hurry. How stupid I felt not thinking about something so simple as a possible wind change, duh. Again, enjoyed you humor and thanks for posting.
