Jimi,why on earth should i do that! I've got a perfectly good cqr with a swivel and chain. Works every time for me. I've also got 100 m of octoplait after my 50m of chain which I can deploy in extreme conditions or depth. I don't see the point in setting an anchor in a way that requires a diver with an underwater walkie talkie to set it right! I just want something that works first time, everytime just by chucking it over the side paying out 5 times the depth and engaging a bit of reverse to dig it in.
You were the one who said a good anchor was one with a shed load of chain - you are wrong. No-one said you had to try it as common practice.
