Not to start an argument but where did you find that information?

My note read like this, Bruce:
"The Azure URL (above) notes [ it ]"

Brian Whatcott Altus OK
....

I did look at the URL, above, and in one place it states that the
anchor has received Lloyd's certificate but in another place it says
that the test is being conducted.

First statement
The Manson Supreme has been reviewed by Lloyds Register of Shipping
and has received a SHHP status. The first and only production boat
anchor in the world to do so.

Second statement
The anchor is currently being surveyed by Lloyds Register of Shipping
and will be certified as a Super High Holding Power Anchor, the first
production anchor in the world to receive this status & certification.

Thus my question.

I have a private note in hand that appears to confirm the maker's
contention that The Mason Supreme is the only SHHP Lloyds-rated
device at present.

I also hear that the Rocna anchor in debate is made by sub-contract
suppliers, that vendor having no production capability in-house at
present. (not that this is particularly damning, I wouldn't think?).
