Anchor

[drob]

Anyone know where I can get a new anchor? Lost it this weekend. Took the kids out fishing and we go to pull up the anchor. I had my oldest watching as I pulled it up. I asked is it up yet? "Yeah, I guess. Does it go in the boat?" I go up there and it had to snap the bolt that is attached to the anchor. If I wasn't just with the kids and it wasn't 55 degrees in the water...I was told it is a Kodiak 22. Any help would be appreciated.

West has delta plow anchors 22 pound (galvanized) for around 180. I bet Jim here at BOE can get them too.

Try a Delta Fastset 22lb.

Thanks, my wife went on west marine after I lost it and told me it was going to be about $600-700, I sort of lost it. She was looking at the stainless ones.

I would get a Fortress anchor.
FX-11 should work for you.

Did you mark the area with your GPS? How deep is it?

I’d go skin diving for it.

Last weekend I rescued/retrieved a stone monkey! With zero visibility I had to feel around in the muck with my feet.

This one was just recovered from a wreck off the Jersey coast on the Stolt Dagali...

On a more serious note, I replaced mine with a stainless CQR type anchor that I bought from a reseller on ebay. 44lber and I only paid about $300 total.....

there's one in Red Wine Cove, Lake Travis at 40'...Slow Ride lost it last weekend.

It is in about 14 ft of water, it was high tide though. It was just me and the kids when I lost it, so I couldn't just jump in. The water was about 55 degrees also. I would have been George Castanza on Sienfield, shrinkage.

OK, send us a Waypoint, so I can go pick up a spare :smt001

In between Bird Island and Stone Estate, Pinney Point. Good luck.

If you anchor in black stinky muck, a Danforth type might fare slightly better than a plow. I swear by my old fashioned 22lb galvanized Danforth Hi Tensile. Holds well in mud and sand,which is what we have around here.

So where on this chart?

Goto a local dive shop and offer to pay for airfills for a couple of divers ($10 a fill). Around here people will jump at a reason to dive, if I was closer I'd go get if for you. Good luck
