At night I add the 5# mushroom anchor at the top of the chain as a sentinel. Works well. I've only dragged anchor once - in 50 mph wind when anchored on a silt bottom near Chestertown. Otherwise it has worked fine. steveStevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17060896232365651376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5137810012036013226.post-78956619716275430222014-12-09T07:55:11.857-05:002014-12-09T07:55:11.857-05:00It is amazing how much we can stuff these boats wi...It is amazing how much we can stuff these boats with. One day I may weigh it all out of curiosity. <br />I was surprised to see the "navy" anchor. Looks like a good chunk of metal. I'm biased toward a 11# claw and 10' of chain for now. So, what is the small mushroom for? lunch hook?<br />Appreciate the post. Spring is coming ... one day.eebe4https://www.blogger.com/profile/07369366502650144747noreply@blogger.com
