As others said stay with the 1/2" line....fine for your boat and much easier on the hands.
There are line rating published for the lines itself. BUT THE IMPORTANT THING TO KNOW is CHAIN and scope.
THE CHAIN IS THE KEY TO ANCORING.
For you boat I would have 20ft of 5/16" chain. This extra weight creates what they call Cantenary. Acts like a bowe (buffer) as to not jerk to line and anchor, letting the anchor line lead flater and not up to the boat.
Scope, have enough scope (extra line) as to notbe pulling up at too much of an angle.
For your boat I'd carry 200ft of rode minimum.
