Testing Anchors
The tugboat test is a good one for testing relative holding power.
Relative holding power using a tugboat in conditions on the day of the
test. Anchors build reputations based on years of service on a variety
of boats and conditions. The tugboat test is interesting, but
ultimatley laughable as a primary reason to buy an anchor.
And the sea bottom could allow one anchor to get a better set and so
on. The tugboat test is loaded with problems.
