Why should you NEVER anchor from the stern?

  1. It is illegal

  2. To avoid engine damage

  3. There's a risk of swamping the boat

  4. It's less secure

The correct answer is: There's a risk of swamping the boat

Anchoring from the stern of a boat can cause the boat to be swamped by waves or other watercraft, leading to a potentially dangerous situation. While the other options may be true, they are not the main reason why anchoring from the stern should be avoided. It is important to always anchor from the bow or the front of the boat to ensure the safety of passengers and the security of the boat.
