That is a standard setup this for larger boats, with Bruce and Claw anchors, but instead of zip ties they use stainless wire.



Many an anchor has been saved by the above method, especially in rocky areas like the islands.

If your going to use a standard anchor with rope that is definitely the way to do it.
