Anchor time!

In the boating world there are no subjects that generate more discussion than anchors! Which one is best? How much chain vs rode? 

Like many Chinese builders, the Airtex anchor is the default one provided by the factory. I was always impressed by the Ultra anchors that are standard on Flemings and those owners told me they performed exceptionally well. 

I spec'd this anchor on our boat and am glad to have all 80 kg of it on board Mahalo. She's a beauty. Also, foreman Lu came up with a super slick anchor "stay" that is much preferable to the traditional "claw" arrangement for fastening the anchor to the boat without putting strain on the windlassl
