I'd like to repeat two items mentioned before... and add number three:
1. As much or more importance than the actual anchor design it is the "correct" method used of setting said anchor (of any type) by the boat Captain at hand - that is the
bottom line!
2. In different bottom conditions there can become need to use different anchor designs. This again comes back to boat Captain's "correct" method of anchoring. And, it may well be required for a boat to have more than one design of anchor... depending on how many different bottom conditions a boat often anchors.
3.
Every anchor design/brand discussed in these posts are apparently good products. It is up to individual Captains to utilize anchor of their choice. Again, "correct" method used of setting said anchor (of any type) by the boat Captain at hand - is the
bottom line!
