Default Re: trouble anchoring

Try to find out the weight of your anchor. I used to try to get away with my old 6lb anchor from my 19ft bayliner for my 21ft and it used to slide on me. Went up to 8lb and never had a problem since. If unsure of weight, try to weigh it or take a pic and post it here. And make sure its not bent at all. Once the shaft gets bent from getting stuck in a wreck or something its trash. I've tried to straighten them out and it never works right again.
