For what its worth:
I bought a Rocna last year from Suncoast marine in Canada. (http://www.suncoastmarine.ca/) They shipped it to my marina and it arrived right on schedule. They even tried to talk me down a size. I thought the cost was reasonable and the service was good. I only dropped the hook once since. Docking in a blow I wrapped my prop and was consequently heading heading out the harbour unintentionally. The anchor caught on some old fishing cable and I nearly ripped the windlass out getting it free. In Newfoundland the locals commonly dumped old fishing gear in the harbour. The previous year I drug once and brought up all kinds of interesting crap: some 2" poly line and what looked like an old sail except it had a printed pattern. So, for me and my conditions, it is important that I have an anchor I can unfoul easily. Unfortunately, no comment on holding power. |
