The search function is awesome and may get you better info, I'm sure this topic is covered. I think most will agree that they rarely anchor, therefore seldom use the anchor trolly. I don't think it's worth drilling holes over.

When I do anchor I would use a bungee from the anchor rope/with a float, to the kayak and use the hooks and hook them on something (like a handle). This will help absorb boat wake and prevent you from flipping. IF i ever needed to move quick I just un-hook the rope from the kayak move and the float will keep it above water and I can go back and haul it in.

Good luck.
