There are smaller versions of sea anchors used for similar purposes, called trolling anchors, drift anchors, etc. These are often used to slow the drift of a fishing boat due to wind. Since the only difference between these and a sea anchor is scale and rigging (drift anchors are rigged with much shorter lines and often to allow sideways drift) I may expand this article to cover them all, with a section for each use. scot 14:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
