My boat calls for a 15 kg Bruce for 60 knot winds.
A 35# CQR. (16 kg) and
A whopping 33 kg for Rocna!

So does this mean the Rocna design is so lousy it takes twice the
weight to work properly?

Of course most people brag about their anchors ...
That's probably because they found one that works for them. I have one
anchor that I favor 'cause it seems to work everywhere I go but then the
bottom doesn't change much.
