Thank you! Had a great day out there today but I think we need a bigger anchor.
We tried to anchor at the Margate and it slipped in a stiff breeze. Was getting crowded so I hauled it and made for the channel. I'm going to take a look at your recommendation in another thread and order one. Ill keep this one for the stern. |

I liked the concept of it and also liked the Mantus but your having one "for years" pushed me over to it. It arrived yesterday and I have some shackles and line (rode) and looked online for the best anchor knot to tie it with...not going to try it until next week due to a busy weekend schedule. I'll report back here with my experience when I try it out. Once again, this forum is the best for all things Winni😜 Thanks! |

I think you made a great choice especially for a pontoon. The no chain to scratch and mud up your toon and self cleaning feature you will really appreciate after a couple uses. It's sets and holds very easily as well.
Good luck! Dan

I just got a 15# digger. Picking up line on my way up today for the week. Hopefully it will work well.

Any time something can be construed as a political statement IE: "Diversity is a great thing" The thread gets over taken by ideologues from one side or the other. I know it was a harmless remark, and I was joking, But I wouldn't be surprised.

Lol...my mind was strictly, on anchors and letting folks see how the "different" and "diverse" products and reviews and reports thereof, can be of help in deciding which to buy.
