Hi all Thinking about getting an electric anchor for my 19' W/A. I would love to be able to drop anchor from the pit rather than having to go to the front. Anyone have any suggestions ? Like the ones I have seen seem to show a mushroom and say boats up to say 24' Will a mushroom hold? Boat

Re: Electric anchor question

If this is the type mushroom anchor youre talking about I would not use this on a 19 ft boat. I would recomend a fluke style anchor for your boat. If your wanting an electric anchor, better known as a windless , this is the least that I would consider. From my experiance with windleses, unless anchoring in shallow water (10 to 15 feet) I would recommend a larger, name brand for the loooong hauls.
