I was looking at a Spade but ended up going with a Mantus 35# they appear to be about the same size, the Mantus fit just fine.

It will fit on the bow roller and we've had no problem with the tip being near the bow. The shank is curved and the anchor does want to roll forward. I've got a line with a shackle on it to hold it in place, otherwise, it would probably "self launch."

After some mental trouble shooting, I remembered that I by-passed the water heater for winterization and I hadn't reconnected it.  So the heating element in the heater was heating air-not water. I don't think it liked heating air because once I plumbed the heater back in and it filled with water, still no hot water.
