You are anchoring in a river where the current is from one direction only. The best way to lay out two anchors is to have them __________.

Correct Answer: Option D — so that their lines form an angle

Laying two anchors at an angle creates a 'V' configuration, which provides superior resistance to current-induced yawing. This setup ensures that at least one anchor remains properly set and loaded, preventing the vessel from dragging or swinging excessively as the current shifts or acts upon the hull.
