[quote=MN3][quote]I don't have an anchor. How is yours stowed? [/quote] yea that's one of the drawbacks of an anchor on a beach cat - not always a great way to stow them ,ost of the local mystere guys used to shove it into the tramp front pocket (meant for halyards and other small stuff) eventually it leads to that pocket getting stretched/torn - needing love. Once guy would bungie it to the beam in front of the mast on my h18 i had an old carry-on bag (similar in design to a lady's purse,but made out of luggage material) that was perfect for a small steel walmart "superhooker" anchor. I would lash that to the front of the tramp. kinda a pita for crew - but it wasn't that big of a deal on my mystere 5.5- i designed and purchased a custom front tramp for my anchor / light gear my mystere 6.0 came with a custom hand-made webbing front cargo net attached to the corners of the beam (wings actually) and runs up to the front bridal (actually spin pole but about the same area) - could be "hung" without a spin pole but could get a little loose / wonky in waves i now carry a#7 alum fortress anchor - [url]http://fortressanchors.com/anchors/fortress[/url] with some chain attached to it (alum anchor will glide and not bite into the ground if moving fast enough ) but the superhooker works surprisingly well for something from walmart[/quote]
