Re: Stus-List Anchor test - recommended lunch hook/kedge?

I recently had my first anchor test. We were in Coechles harbor on Shelter Island overnight and a 50+ knot squall blew through at 2AM. I have a Rocna (I believe it is the 27 lb) with 20’ of chain and I had about 70’ of line which is about 6:1 in that area. I was one of the few boats that did

Re: Stus-List Anchor test - recommended lunch hook/kedge?

When I bought Weatherly there was a Fortress, I think FX11, with it. Most of the time it held, but once in a grassy bottom it just not set at all in 18 kts breeze. After that, thanks to recommendations on this list, I bought at 33 lb Rocna. The Fortress is my lunch hook only now. Few weeks

I am using a 45lb CQR with 125 ft of chain and 200 ft rode. Mever have drug even with 3-4 boats rafted. I know over kill, but I like to sleep at night. It sets in any type bottom I have encountered. Did I mention I also have a windlass for the heavy work. For a lunch hook I let out les

Stus-List Anchor test - recommended lunch hook/kedge?

Interesting few hours today doing an anchor test. A young guy at port Whitby marina was looking for an anchor for his tanzer 26, to replace the really tiny and cheap ski-boat danforth type that came with his boat (and had proved impossible to set). We had discussed over beverages a few times

Re: Stus-List Anchor roller arrangement on my C&C 38

Listers, Many good ideas and thanks to all for your input. I liked Rick Brass's idea of adding provision for the asymmetrical tack line to the custom roller mounting plate. Paul E's use of the 4WD controller is cool and his blog is even cooler. Tom's photos show a really neat install

Re: Stus-List Anchor

Hi Gary, I don't believe the shortened bar is a big deal for anchor holding. The extensions have more to do for getting a faster set, getting the anchor to tip down right away. Don't worry, be happy. Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 At 02:10 PM 03/06/2016, you wrote: I was at th

Stus-List Anchor

I was at the consignment store today and I picked up a Danforth 20lb hi tensile anchor. When I got it home and looked at it more closely I discovered that the the rail along the top was shortened by 3" on each side (6" total). I think this was done so it would fit in someone's anchor locker. T

I've been following Steve's succession of Anchor Test videos for a few months now The video in the previous email (still attached below) sums them all up very well to date. He is still testing. If you want to see quite a bit more deal about any one of the individual Anchors and each specific tes

Hi, Here is a nice video showing various anchor being tested. It uses a gopro camera showing an initial setting and then 180 degree shift and reset. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l59f-OjWoq0 - Paul E. 1981 C&C 38 Landfall S/V Johanna Rose Ca

My anchor locker lid on my LF38 is cored and it uses piano hinges. So, in 1983 that was the standard in the Rhode Island plant. Bob Bob Boyer S/V Rainy Days / Annapolis MD 1983 C&C Landfall 38 - Hull #230 email: dainyr...@icloud.com blog: dainyrays.blogspot.com "There is nothing--absolutely n
