Hello all. I'm installing a windlass in my 2855 and am considering replacing the Danforth anchor with a claw/Bruce anchor. I'm getting conflicting information on different sites regarding the anchor weight recommended for my boat.
According to West Marine's site, a 16.5lb claw is recommended for 24 - 30' boats, and the 22lb claw for 31 - 35' boats. Other sites put a 28' boat at the top of the range for a 16.5lb claw.
I'm in the Lake Erie Islands area - primarily sand and relatively shallow. I have 15' of 1/4" chain on the rode.
