[C320-list] Mantus or Rocna

[swampcreek42]

We're not the original owners but I believe everything is stock. The anchor is the 35lb one. It fits fine but we do wrap a bungee from the anchor roll bar to the rail to keep it steady in rough weather. I'm sure there's a better solution but I haven't got around to it yet.

I'm already sold on the anchor... Just want to know what size and if you had to modify anything to make it fit.
Thanks!Doug Treff

We love our Mantus! SOOOO much better  in the black Chesapeake mud than a Danforth type. It has set 1st time every time since we bought it 2 years ago.

Initially, I bought the Rocna 10 (22lb). Decided instead to go with the Rocna 15 (33 lb). I had to get a slightly larger bailer to accommodate it. Been very happy with its performance
