Hey guys I am looking at buying a 20 foot aluminum boat...the question is this...what type of anchor and what weight would you guys buy? I am also thinking of putting on one of those Minn Kotta electric windlass anchor winches...Thoughts????
I wold go with a 7.5 KG Bruce anchor, and 40 feet of chain. Don't bother with an anchor winch, you will have no problem pulling that anchor up if you overnight. For halibut fishing, get a scotsman and a slider.
Sounds like a lot of chain at tide change to wrap around some rocks
got a 20fter and seems to do ok with 10ft of lighter chain and 10 of heavier chain
cheers
The one I am looking at is at an 85ft per minute retrive, and says it can hold up to a 50lb anchor...I may take your advised though I really like the idea of pucing 1 button, and having things happen for me...
