Generic anchoring question: Would everyone agree the proper-sized Bruce and Danforths (not one or the other, but both available to deploy at all times) should be all the anchor a sheltered water sailor needs? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Kidd" <jk@yosemite.net> To: <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 9:19 PM Subject: M15 Anchor Systems Steve, I use a small Bruce as my basic anchor. My Danforth knockoff lunch hook has dragged on occasion but the Bruce with about 16 feet of chain has never budged from where to was planted. It is unbeatable in mud and sand. The only disadvantage is stowing the unusual shape of the Bruce. Joe Kidd M14 #207 "Poco A Poco"
