I did was to put the Danforth on the bow and the Bruce on the side roller. To keep the claw from chewing up the underside of the teak pulpit I had a piece of 1/8 SS flat stock cut to the proper size. I drilled and screwed it to the under side where the claw hits and it was a done deal. You might look and see if that might work for you as well. Also, I have always gone with the rule of "a foot of chain for a foot of boat length minimum but have cheeped up to an even 50 feet on my Danforth. That way it's easier to measure the amount of line deployed. I've mentioned this before but I'll say it again "just because". If I'm going to the trouble to put an anchor down then I going to put a real anchor down. I don't believe in "lunch hooks" unless your boat is only a day sailor. I remember doing the lunch hook thing several times when I just stared out sailing only to have decided to stay over night. Now you're faced with a decision. Should I go to the trouble to re-anchor with the proper size anchor or stay up half the night on anchor watch because the wind might come up. It didn't take me long to ditch the lunch hook and buy another proper anchor. As for having the second anchor in the cockpit, all I can say is that it is just as easy to launch an anchor into a dinghy from the bow (maybe easier) as it is from the stern. The only difference is that you have a nice roller already ready to go. My procedure for setting a stern anchor is to bring the dinghy to the bow, lower the anchor into the water up to the shackle. I tie a light line through the eye of the anchor and then tie it to the dinghy with a quick release knot. I dump the chain into the dinghy and pull myself to the stern. I pass the anchor road into a snatch block that I have tied to the stern cleat. I then back the dinghy towards where I want to drop the anchor. I back the dinghy because it so much easier to steer that way. When I get to my spot I dump the chain and continue pulling until everything is paid out nice then I pull the quick release knot and let the anchor fall. I go back to the boat, set the anchor by hand and then take it out of the snatch block and tie it to the cleat. The only down side is that I have some anchor rode laying along the side deck which I have pulled up tight and neat. When it comes time to retrieve the anchors, just put it back into the snatch block and let out on the stern anchor as you pull in your bow. Then take the stern line out of the snatch block, pull in the stern as the boat swings around and continue pulling until you have recovered both of your anchors and never had to get in the dinghy. It's a lot better on your back as well.
