Heard your explanation about your anchor, but have to tell you that anchoring is slightly different than what you think it is. The reason an anchor drags is not because the anchor is under- or oversized, it is all about the shank of the anchor not remaining level with the sea bed and that has everything to do with the anchor chain.
Once you understand why your anchor drags you will understand what to do about it. And as a spoiler, it does not have a lot to do with the size of the anchor, it is just a mathematical equation that you will need to solve.
We dragged once in an anchorage in Corfu during a sudden storm and that was the moment I wanted to understand the mathematics about anchoring. Once I figured those out I knew what to do and since that time we have not dragged anymore. I have explained anchoring in detail on other Youtube channels, if you want to know the ins and outs just give a shout and I will explain it. Not sure your subscribers want to read the mathematics of anchoring.
Great tip about preparing the lines around the rocks when going stern to.

The way I saw it, that big yacht was not crossing any anchors but the thing is, you never know when you are that close as somebody just might have a lot more chain out than normal. When possible, I like to ask the other boats when I come in how much they have out. You'd be surprised how many don't know.

IMHO, in order, these are the best overall anchors: Bulwagga (now sold in Turkey), Mantus, Rocna, Ultra, and I wouldn't trust anything else as a main anchor. Best storm anchors (used with other anchors): Fortress, Danforth, Max, Mantus, nothing else.

A Bulwagga with a Mantus and 2 very large Fortress storm anchors is what I like to keep. Bulwagga the main anchor. The Mantus and Fortress can be dismantled for storage. You need a good backup main because, well, people like to steal anchors. The Bulwagga sets better than anything. Mantus is the second best setting anchor out there and holds better than the Bulwagga so it's a pretty good main anchor too which is what I am currently using as a main anchor. They don't make a Bulwagga for a 55' boat.

When the wind picks up, especially with a wind shift, ALWAYS go on deck, not just to watch your boat, but all the others too. I've been in blows where every boat not using a new gen anchor dragged including a 100 million dollar sailing yacht and several 200' fishing vessels. For this reason, I am not a fan of deploying stern anchors and ropes and would rather anchor out father if I can. Not being able to quickly get away from others can be a big problem.

Learn In Tandem anchoring. You don't need a bigger anchor that you will rarely use, but 2 anchors on the same rode/chain (not separate rodes).
