In case the guy just wants some good, sound advice regarding boater's safety w/o a bash over the head:

Always anchor straight of the bow, no matter what the current.

Keep a knife handy to sever the bowline incase it becomes fouled and puts you at risk of foundering (ie: a submerged log rolls into your anchorline and starts to drag your azz down to Davy Jones' Locker).

Use the proper anchor for the right occasion. (Dont try to use a pyramid anchor on The CR or use a danforth anchor on the Cowlitz.)

Anyhoo--do your homework, and in any given fishing setting, bug the old timers!

thanks for all the helpful advice guys. looks like the pulley system on the bow is the best idea.
