X owners are instructed to drop the longest foil when at anchor. This serves to hold the vessel from a grounding should the anchor drag and as an alarm for the inattentive.

In another post you said the plate is designed to snap if she hits rocks, an example given of the French canal trip. This makes it a bloody expensive anchor alarm don't you think. I would stick to your depth sounder if you were unsure of the anchoring, if I was you.
