[QUOTE="jethro, post: 418204, member: 12381"] It might be 15lbs instead but it's a heavy thing. Not one of those thin Danforth anchors, it's a fluke style anchor but thick, bulbous and heavy "wings". It's possible a proper Danforth is a better option with sharp "wings" it would bite more into the sand? It came with the boat and the previous owner was the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Police so I don't know. All I know is when I'm anchored on the sandbar on Winnisquam or Sunapee I have to keep checking it or my boat can walk a bit due to all the boat traffic. Yes, it's important to have the length of chain, but I think it's only 2 or 3 feet on my anchor. I may try a normal "flat" Danforth instead. [/QUOTE]
