BruceK ... You wrote " Logic says the U of the shackle sits in the slot, pin upwards,". Well if the U part of the shackle is in the slot and the anchor was upright the "U" would need to be horizontal unless the shackle has a 09 Degree twist.
Then you write "I`m more trusting of a s/steel shackle quality than of gal. BruceK" I think galvanized shackles ARE steel except for the thin coating of zinc. I think you've got the best anchor in the world and I'd do what Rex says too.
