[C320-list] SURVEY Anchor Type. Anchor Weight. Chain Length. Warp Length

[Warren Updike]

1) Anchor Type	DANFORTH
2) Anchor Weight	28LBS
3) Chain Length	12'
4) Warp Length	150 This depends on your sailing area.

Bruce, you should probably include the sailing area or the ave. depth and
type of ground encountered as these are important in anchor/rode
determination. We sail strictly on the Chesapeake Bay where ave. anchoring
depths are 6-12' and bottoms are soft mud to sand, little rock, or grass. I
rarely put out more than 90' with ave. more like 50-60'.

Check out the Rocna anchor. I've been hearing good stuff about these. I
think PS did a review a while ago.
