I need to buy a couple anchors for use in Maine and have been reading
the reviews on CruiseNews.net.

Does anyone think there is a real world difference between the "best"
and above average in these tests? Often tests like that just tell you
what was best on that particular day and location.

I like the look of the traditional plow and have a bow roller for one.
Is there a compelling reason to go with a Bruce or a Spade?

The boat has a bow locker for a Danforth type so I'll probably go with
that for the lunch hook.

I have been anchoring in Maine for 25 seasons and have found danforth
types (Fortress now) ideal for the usual clay bottoms. Occasionally a
weedy cover requires retrying, but not often.

Duck Harbor on Isle au Haut has a rocky bottom where a Luke or the
like would be wanted if you had one.
