Re: Lightweight anchors

Quote:

I've got a fortress, not sure what size, plus about 10 mtrs 3/8 chain and 30 mtrs warp, boat is 28 foot and 4 tons.

I have been anchored and the tide changed many time and she has never dragged that I have been aware of.

Very pleased with it.




Well we have a 32 foot boat and have used our (reserve anchor) Fortress FX16 quite a few times on a variety of bottoms. Like you, never had a problem with it re-setting, but have had a BIG problem getting it out!! Well worth putting tripping line on them to help!
