Has anyone else tried the Fortress anchor and been disappointed with
them? I have found once the anchor bites in and is set, it is a great
anchor. The problem is if you are in a current, the anchor "sails" in the
water, making it very difficult to set the hook.




We had a Fortress on our 32 footer (I believe it was an FX 16) with 5 feet
of chain rode....it held great in all types of seas in sand, mud and rocky
bottoms. Light weight and good holding power.

A great anchor that never let us down.
