[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2][#002850]My experience is that these Danforth, Hooker, or Supper Hooker style anchors are best bang for the buck. For their weight, they hold as good as, or even much better than, anchors that weigh 3 times heavier.

As it has been said before, they should have about 6 feet of 1/2 inch chain connected to the anchor to ensure that the rope doesn't lift the anchor arm.

When folks buy these, they tend to get a bigger anchor than necessary. If you do buy one, just get the one designed for the size of your boat or one size larger. The anchors are labled as to what size boat they are designed for.[/#002850][/size][/font]
