Very large anchor and chain for 37 ton boat

[jellyellie]

Hi all, as per thread title, I need a very large anchor and chain suitable for a 37 ton boat.

I think around 55kg for the anchor.

Will check what chain size I need for the gypsy but what have you got?

Thanks David, I have sent them an email to find out what type of anchor theirs is.

surely better to buy one of these http://www.rocna.com/product-range/anchor/1

Made up to even super yacht size and far easier on the arms when your weighing anchor.

A Rocna would be lovely but at over £1,000 for the anchor alone, it's a little out of my budget for now.

Right, I am still looking for a massive anchor - just bought a 55kg Danforth but it has arrived and is 55lbs not kilos! Can't return it as I arranged a courier to collect it from Scotland. Anybody want to buy it? And where can I get a giant anchor from?

One of my grammatical pet hates on that website:

We have recently acquired several tonnes of anchors, they have come out of Germany & Holland and would of been used on the barges.

Still, looks useful for the OP.
