Lost my anchor when the rope cut, now needing to get a new anchor and I'm going to all chain.
On the Lofrans windless, it says "5/16". What I can't find is the link size, does anyone know that size?
Also, is there any particular chain type that is best? I'm seeing a lot of "bbb" and "G4"?
Had what I believe was a 35# anchor - plow type. Inland lake, mostly sand, mud, and broken down rock bottom, anchoring in 10 - 30' where wind is the biggest factor.
From what I've read, seems like a Rocna original looks to be the best. Would it hurt anything if I went to a heavier....44# anchor?
Thanks.....
