I think a Jordan Series Drogue is a better investment than a sea
anchor. It will put less strain on the boat, and is probably one of the best pieces of safety gear for a small sailing craft...and 46' is still pretty small.
If you haven't read up on the Jordan Series Drogue, I'd recommend you go to the website,
www.jordanseriesdrogue.com and take a look around.

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.
