The specs for the 9 pound anchor say good for 9' to 20' boat, I would be more comfy with the 14 pound anchor that will hold 20' to 30' boats. I also would get 10' of galvanized anchor chain. Don't get the rubber coated chain. This will assure you a good hold in any conditions. You can never be to safe. You might want to give Matt at task marine a call for a price on these items, He can also get Anchor line too.

double3fd,
Thanks for the good words and I'm honored that you made the drive this fall again. Your boat will be well taken care of. If you still need the anchor for next season, let me know. I'll check pricing.
Thanks.
Matt
