In a perfect world, we anchor from the surfact - see the wreck on the DF/sonar and throw the anchor as soon as it starts coming up - that works +/- 30% of the time. Many times if you throw the anchor from the boat, you end up hooked in rocks, sand, mud - anything but the wreck - as you desend, you end up doing your dive on an new site called "Sahara Desert"
What I end up doing is taking the anchor down, securing it to the wreck, then come up - a pain, but theats the way many dive charters in S FL do it, so I'm in good company, plus I know for sure the anchor is set on the wreck.
Don't know if its easier in a larger boat; ours is 31'
