Doug, forgot to ask some of the key questions:

What is the weight of your boat vs anchor weight?

Boat is 15 Tons (43 feet). Anchor is 33#. Rated for a 53' to 65' boat.

What scope ratio were you using and length/type of chain?

100' all chain in 10 feet of water. Anchor just laid on its side and
dragged.
45# CQR set just fine after giving up on the Spade.
