Huh? What sort of boat do you have, that doesn't stay head to wind on a bow anchor alone?

It's not JUST for head-to-wind situations as I said in my post!! If anything, it's primarliy used for holding the bow to any waves/swell.

Surely your boat won't lie haed to swell/waves without a kedge will it? Pretty unigue design if so.

There's nothing special in using a kedge - masses of boats both here, the Med and elsewhere do all the time.
