What anchor would you suggest

I wonder if her master has seen my ad in the "For Sale" sub-forum? Two plough anchors offered at a knock-down price! Free delivery to Portsmouth (England)

More important how thick and long should the snubber be? Can they use the Seal's redundant climbing ropes?
 
Notice the very steep anchor chain: catenary, depleted uranium chum, or an old F-14 hung off the rode?
 
Good to see the Pompey equivalent of the dghaisa alongside. I hope they are making a profit on the fuel being taken.
 
2 x 10t AC14s + a spare somewhere (and maybe also stern gear) then 50mm stud link chain for each of the 2 bow anchors (chain length bizarrely still measured in shackles) + a series of officers on anchor watch 24/7.

Real men do not need snubbbers, only for wimps.
