[Rhodes22-list] anchoring

[Joe Babb]

Hi Bill,
Yes, I saw your rant.  I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.  My main 
reference is experience plus the book
"The Complete Book of Anchoring and Mooring" by Earl R. Hinz.
The angle of the pull, size of the anchor and boat all make a 
difference.  As for Practical Sailor's tests, they are
comparative tests and even though they are not "real life" tests they 
provide good information to make judgements
about various anchors. 
Best Regards,
Joe
