How do you set the rope length on your anchor

Jon, you'll know you have too much rope when you feet start getting tangled in it. :Fishing Hole:

Oh, that's realllllllly helpful alright.

In the salt 1 1/2 boat length of chain is good. I have 30' of chain on my 18' Cuddy Cabin with 150 hp.

My nephew put 10' of chain on his 17' Boston Whaler.
Camping at Catalina his boat ended up on the beach. Lol.
