[QUOTE="jtf, post: 470090, member: 22611"] Having used both anchors in many bottom structures and river conditions, the toothed anchor is a bit better holder and easier to un-stick in rocky ledges. Twenty pounds is minimum weight for our 14ft hulls, we are in some heavy river waters,[i] and never anchor down in a swift run.[/i] The pyramid hits point down and lays on its side. Ours are cast steel with a coating, not much rust showing. To travel inside the cockpit when trailered, using a heavy plastic milk crate for either (from a big box store). Got tired of the mud and such and cut a diamond shaped, just smaller size, hole in the rear fender step with angle welded at the top sides for reinforcing, drop the anchor in and fits like a glove. Our boats have an anchor arm that cleats the line, so the anchor is never in the boat while underway. These are the same anchor arm on bow and stern. [/QUOTE]
