[QUOTE="Captain Ahab, post: 206532, member: 10"] I suggest a Danforth style (they are rated by boat length so get one for less then a 20 foot boat) at least 4 feet of chain - the chain helps the anchor get the proper angle to "bite" into the bottom. Longer chain - easier anchoring. On my 16 foot boat i use a 5' chain for the Danforth and a 3' for the grapple style On the big boat we run 15' of chain [/QUOTE]
