I am considering a switch from the standard "Delta" type anchor which came with the boat to a "Hooker" mfg by Tie-Down Engineering, Atlanta, GA. This is a Danforth style anchor. My reason for this change is I've had some very bad experiences with the Sea Ray Rig. My question is has anyone out there made or attempted the switch, and will the anchor nest properly in the bracket when retrieving same. I am simply tired of swinging on the hook and having the GPS sound off in the wee hours indicating slippage. Past experience with the danforth style anchor was very good-I'm just concerned with the interface bracket/anchor. Yes I have about 6' chain on the business end. Appreciate any response.
