Just a tad high for a sixty pounder!
Maybe it’s a six hundred and sixty pounder!

Someone should buy it on their Amex, and then invoke WM's price match from somewhere else!

What a story that would be for PassageMaker!

It’s a West Marine ad. Are you sure the price is not correct? [emoji23]

A little heavy for me

I looked at the specs for this overpriced anchor and the weight was 606#, not 60.
A little more than my pulpit will carry.
Maybe with a bigger boat?

154lb is $5639 which almost sounds like a good buy
440 lb is $16399 which is a bargain compared to the OPs choice.
