Have you ever had a Danforth type anchor break out..?

RobHom - Thanks for the kind words. Can I put you on our payroll?

Brian... was that a "job offer"? Sure, lets talk..... I'm right here in Daytona Beach!! But you have to know that what I said was from the heart!!

Guys, have a great holiday. Your comments are always appreciated.

Take care,

Gents,



Dog Watch - We machine down the tips and front edges of the flukes to be pretty sharp. That is supposed to be our "dirty little secret." Kind of like a razor cutting into a surface vs. a dull knife. These sharpened edges should result in faster setting and deeper burying.


Take care,

Brian,
Not really a secret. All the high performing anchors have a sharp edge and the angle is critical for performance. I make my anchors in SS and when testing by dragging along the beach on a length of chain if the angle is not right and point or edge not sharp enough, it just does not dig in initially. Once it starts to dig in its not so important.

Keep up the good work and all the best in the new year.
