A friend has done extensive anchor testing, if you don't watch any of his
other videos, watch this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l59f-OjWoq0.
He picked the Spade as the best design for himself, partly because the roll
bar anchors didn't work well on his setup.

I second Dave’s view on the 3rd generation anchors. CQR is in fact the worst
anchor ever made, that’s why they had to be heavily oversized to work. Delta is
a 2nd generation anchor, good but not great.
For such a critical piece of equipment the choice should be one of the 3rd gen
anchors. Spade
with Mike on the
danforth. An awkward nuisance to stow, and really ineffective in some
conditions. the fortress has proven to be hard to set the few times I've
tried.

It all depends how much you need a good night rest while at anchor. Are
you a dock person, or do you rent morrings, or do you drop a hook? My
fried with the same boat put a 35lbs CQR with 5/16" chain. That boat is
not going anywhere. But he doesn't have a windlass, so raising anchor is
not his

I have used a Delta Sure-set 35 exclusively for about 8 years. It has worked
well from the Thousand Islands to the Bahamas. I have sat through storms with
gusts to 50 kts. and never drug. I also carry a Bruce 45 and a Danforth 35 but
am strongly thinking of removing them from the boat.
I am having a bow roller/stemhead fitting made for my C&C 35 mkll... I am
looking for advice an choosing the proper size and type of anchor to use. My
fabricator wants to know what I am going to use to properly size the
fabrication. I am leaning towards the Delta or a cqr/plow style of anchor. I
