The OP didn't want to use a stern anchor, much less three anchors... And your port bow and starboard bow are separated by enough that you'd have some serious problems if the rodes started to get twisted together.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
