Any particular reason for preferring the Delta?* Bruce anchors have a
reputation for setting very quickly.* I had a Delta for a while on my
old boat but sold it after an experience where it failed to reset
after pulling out.* Spade and Rocna have both become very popular in
recent years because they set well and hold well, even with wind and
current changes.* Two years ago we road out hurricane Matthew using a
combination of a 90 pound Rocna on all chain, and a 65 pound Bruce on
7/8ths nylon.* Both held very well in winds over 70 knots.

How convenient that a fellow asks a question and you have an answer
ready to post...don't forget to tell him how much water your barge
draws and how large the fuel tanks are, too. He'll surely be
impressed, w'hiner.

Your green tint doesn't become you Harry.

You are implying I am jealous of w'hine? That's really funny. There's
nothing about Wayne, his boats, or his life that have the slightest
appeal for me. There's no conservative here who has what I value most.

Ah. That explains your unsolicited response to Wayne's post. Not.

It was a classic example of 'Airree trying to drive away any newsgroup
content that doesn't center on him. Of course he'll deny it.

Maybe it's time for another review of narcissistic behavior for the
benefit of newcomers:

The Mayo clinic sums things up rather succinctly. Perhaps most
telling is this paragraph:

----------------------------------------------
When to see a doctor
People with narcissistic personality disorder may not want to think
that anything could be wrong, so they may be unlikely to seek
treatment. If they do seek treatment, it's more likely to be for
symptoms of depression, drug or alcohol use, or another mental health
problem. But perceived insults to self-esteem may make it difficult to
accept and follow through with treatment.
