From which part of the boat should you lower the anchor line?

The anchor line should be lower from the BOW, ATTACH THE LINE TO THE BOW CLEAT. Anchoring from the bow prevents taking on of water into the vessel which can lead to swamping or capsizing of the vessel. It is recommended never to tie the anchor line to the stern, the additional weight could bring water inside the boat.  

Iwould try the first option, first then if that didn't work i would try the last option.

A.hope this you(: have a good day
