[Rhodes22-list] anchoring - weight and size of mushroom ?

[michael meltzer]

Please see your harbor master, they set the weight for the local conditions
of the mooring, around me it 11 pound per foot, rounded up, i.e. 300 pound.
This is a case where bigger is better.

Bill,

Perhaps I missed something in an earlier post.  If so, please forgive the 
request - but please do provide the specs of the mushroom anchor that you
keep 
aboard your Rhodes -- weight and dimensions.

Many thanks,
