RE: Adrift without an anchor, etcetera

It has always seemed odd to me that boats are required to have a set of in date flares, but not required to have a VHF radio and antenna and a suitable anchor and rode.

I've heard people say they don't need an anchor because they never anchor. My response is "What if you break down? What will keep you in a safe place?"

It seems you must have come across one of those people.
