I specified the 50’s and 60’s. That’s 22 years after the introduction of rhe Danforth by your own claim. I never looked it up I just assumed you were right.
And the Danforth was a very lightweight anchor in 1960. Most of the boats w the davit lift (that’s the word I needed Delfin, davit) were over 40’. And most were Danforths as they stowed so nicely on deck. Few others do.
