Anchor line size?

I've always used half inch anchor line which is certainly overkill for a 21' boat but I was diving in some deeper spots and leaving nobody in the boat so I wasn't taking any chances. I don't dive much anymore and the line is just about had it. Is there a boat weight to line size formula to calculate appropriate breaking strength? My anchor is a fortress rated for boats to 48'.
