From: "John Gaquin" <jgaquin@earthlink.net> Subject: TWL: Anchors >Has anyone ever run into this so-called "box anchor"? I just encountered it elsewhere on the web. Never heard of it before. I've read a couple of reviews of the box anchor. It's properties seem pretty impressive, but after reading the articles carefully and looking at the manufacturer's website, it seemed to me that this anchor is designed primarily for smaller boats in lakes and rivers. There seems to be no reason it couldn't be used in saltwater, but from the website the anchors don't seem very large, and I definitely got the impression they were designed more for runabouts, small cruisers, and small fishing boats, sort of in the 15-25 foot range. The photos on the website at the time certainly implied this, too. _________________________________________ C. Marin Faure GB36 "La Perouse" Bellingham, WA
