I have a 27kg plough anchor, 12m of short link chain and 50m of nylon rope in the anchor locker(and a spare with a similar set up below). I am sure you could more chain in but I have not needed it to date.

Provide your anchor is not bigger then a standard 24-27kg plough and you coil up the the chain and warp it should be fine.
