Mantus

[dogwspts]

Anybody tried the mantus anchor ????

It’s very similar to a Delta Anchor. They along with 3-5 feet of chain will bite in cement! But they are heavy ( Stay with 8 lbs ish)
Tricky to store as you may want to look at a coated Fluke. They make them coated, and in aluminum.

I have a Mantus and will echo Matt's comment re: tricky to store. Couldn't get mine to fit in the anchor locker, so it sits in my basement cold cellar. Some suggested that I store it under the bow seats, but I'm not keen on moving a large anchor through an area covered in expensive vinyl!

After trying the Mantus I went with a box anchor. Works great. Less filling.

I read a lot of reviews on the coated fluke anchors and most were bad. The coating comes off at the tips and, in some cases, rusts. Kinda defeats the purpose of the coated if it comes off on the sharp tips!

Can you fit an 8lb or 15lb Mantus on a 220S? Has any tried it? I hate anchoring BTW.
