How do you guys store your anchor??

I also have a storage area. But I never use it. The old owner use to feed the rope thur the bow to the locker.
But he must have done alot of beach anchor?? There was tons and tons of sand in there!! Took me like 3 years to get it all out!
I just have the anchor in a bracket on the bow. The rope is coiled into a 5 gal bucket in the cuddly till I need it. The bucket has holes in the bottom so that it will dry and not sit in water all the time.
