I installed a new windlass and breakaway anchor roller on my 89 25.5 Sailfish and installed a 11lbs with 15 ft of bbb chain.
The anchor is to light to set in grass and mud on a breezy day.
I'm going to replace the 11lbs with a heavier anchor. Thinking of about 15 to 20 lbs.
How heavy is your anchor?
Thanks in advance
