It isn't sunny and calm every day in the Bahamas. Currents, tides and winds can shake you up in a hurry. The only way to be sure of your anchor holding is to dive down and check it. You'll need that confidence when the gale force winds strike and boats around you are dragging their own anchors.

SDA28 Anchor Checks and Gale Force Winds
