Product Description
The unique shank configuration of the Chene anchor allows for 45° of holding surface, so the large flukes penetrate deeply. Slip shank angle makes the anchor 100% retrievable. Can be retrieved straight up without the use of a separate trip line. High-tensile zinc-plated steel construction. Not for use with anchor chains. Use anchor rope only. |

I read all the reviews, they were not great, sounded like it works better in muddy bottoms, but I had to try it anyway. I have a 20' Trophy WA. My main area of operations are eastern NC in the sounds. I bought the recommended chene anchor but it looked so small, so I exchanged it for the next size, my problem is the anchor storage space will only hold a very small anchor, this fits. In using it, it took several trys to get it to work on a muddy bottom. I tried it without a chain, then with a chain on sandy bottom it never hooked. I tried a little bit of rope, alot of rope and it still didn't catch. The only way to set it is swim to the bottom and dig it in by hand.

Comments about Chene Anchor, recommended for 25' to 30' boats:
USED AS A MAIN ANCHOR ON BOTH LAKE MICHIGAN AND ON THE TENNESSE RIVER. DEFINITELY NEEDS A CHAIN.
I NOW USE MY OLD DANFORTH AS A SPARE OR REAR ANCHOR.

Bought this anchor to hold a 16 foot boat. Wouldn't dig into bottom. This is a waste of money. Don't waste your time or money.

This anchor will hold my 22' pontoon securely even on very windy days; the boat would drag my previous anchors.

Comments about Chene Anchor, recommended for 25' to 30' boats:
Holds my 21 foot pontoon rather well but on a few occasions did not hold. Read on internet to use about 5 to 6 feet of chain which I tried and so far has held every time. Manufacturer does not recommend chain but does seem to help. Have not used that often so will know more in the future.
