Seachoice 41620 Hot Dipped Galvanized Utility Anchor

Understand that this is an anchor for use on a small boat so it is never going to be subjected to lots of strains, etc. The welds look ok and the galvanizing appears to be thick and covers everything well. It is small enough to store on a small boat which is what I really wanted. I am well pleased with the speed of delivery, the quality of the product, and the price. Just understand it is for a smaller boat.

The shipping box was very cheesy and was broke on arrival. No packing material inside box. The product was ok, but seamed cheaply made.

Good anchor for the money. It is not heavy duty and didn't claim to be. It is fine for us, recreational boaters who like to anchor up in usually calm waters, never overnight.

This is lighter than I'd like, flukes could be heavier and sturdier but it seems to work ok. We have mostly clay bottoms and you may have to work to get it to "set" but when it does it holds. You also have to work at it to get it "unset" but it will. If you use a shackle chain it's easier to get the slip part to slide to work the release. Be sure to give yourself room to work and enough anchor rope. I suspect it'd bend in bad rocks but that might be better than leaving it on the bottom. I bought two for days I don't want to blow (swing) around the lake here in windy Oklahoma. It's more work getting them down but once they're set you can adjust your wind presentation angle with the anchor lines.

The anchor worked great for the time I had it. My only complaint was the packaging it arrived in. They wrapped brown paper around the anchor once and the wrapped it in shrink wrap about 8 times and threw a shipping label on it. Was a pain to unwrap even with a box cutter to help.

hold pontoon boat in the wind.

it is too small we'd never hold our boat and I tried to return it and they wouldn't let me even though I had a 90-day return do not buy from this seller

I don't know what kind of scale they are using but we ordered the 13 pnd anchor. when it came, we could clearly tell it was not 13 pnds so we weighed it. It's barely FIVE pounds. I went online just to double check that I did indeed order the 13# and it says it clear as day. Needless to say, this is not going to work for us. This wouldn't even hold a 13 # boat lol

While it held the 28' boat the anchor"teeth" and rod became bent after pulling it up the 2nd time I used it. While I was able to stand on it to straighten out the "teeth" the rod remained bent. I am returning it. Need stronger material that is not so flexible..

Super light weight. It would only hold a floating toy
