It will depend on a number of factors, such as conditions, type of boat, type and size of anchor, etc... That said, I could get by on a calm day with 300' or rode and a 20' section of chain on my 26' with a Danforth anchor that was a bit oversized for my boat. That gave ne just under a 3:1 scope.

The average depth there is 100-120 ft, so three times the depth should be your rule of thumb.

I was on a 50 yesterday and he used 300 to the ball.
