Good morning
what is the best size and type of anchor for an Ericson 29 for cruising in the Pacific Northwest? A danforth of medium size is presently on our new(used) boat.
How important is it to keep the bow quite light? Our past experience with a danforth was not good in as much as with a wind shift it would sometimes pull out and when the wind picked up off we would go.
A friend has an extra plow anchor 10Kg and a quite heavy manual windlass( about 15Kg) I can have if this is suitable for the boat.
Cheers Bill
