Hit your MOB button on your GPS or get a lat long of your location and you can 
come back and grapple or send a diver for the anchor.  Have the chain stretched 
out when you cut it loose.

Yup.  I am anchored right now just north of Blake island.  After 350 in service 
in Poulsbo I took off with two running motors.  As I got out of Rich Passage I 
lost the port engine but starboard was still motoring strong.  35mph winds and 
4-6ft seas.  Just headed toward Blake I lost the second engine.  So here I sit 
anchored.  Hanging out with my dog.  Vessel Assist is 90 minutes out and I am 
getting rocked like I were crossing the Strait on a bad day.  Man am I going to 
sleep well tonight.  Anyone know a top notch diesel mechanic in South Sound 
that knows these darn Detroits?

PS - clutchs in the windlass gave out so I have to cut loose 200 of new chain 
and a new 45lb CQR anchor.  This is turning into a very expensive day.
