Cut 'er loose!

Well, as Capt. Ron would say.... "If it's gonna happen..... It's gonna happen out there"! We managed to somehow get our anchor and chain completely fouled and wrapped multiple times around an underwater wreck in about fifteen feet of water. I did my best to free the anchor, to include diving down to try and free it up. After several tries in ZERO visibility murky water, we decided to "Cut 'er loose"... and live to sail another day. And that's why you always carry a spare. Looks like I will be anchor shopping in the near future.
