FX-11 7lb Marine Anchor, Silver

Description

Boat anchor size recommendations are for boats of average windage and proportions in 30 knots of wind, average bottom conditions, and moderate protection from open seas. Remember that the loads in 42 knots of wind are twice as much as in 30 knots. Use three-strand nylon rope, 6-12 ft (2-4 m) of chain and a minimum of 5:1 scope. Also, a minimum of 6 ft (2 m) of the chain should be used for every 25 ft (8 m) of water depth. For storm conditions use an anchor one or two sizes larger. Easy to manage weight Sharper than heavy, dull-edged steel anchors Will set faster and penetrate deeper into common sea bottoms for incredible holding power Excellent as a spare or storm anchor Easy to store Corrision resistant
